The Ramble is your opportunity to hike the trail from end to end and not have to arrange a ride back. You willl start from the Shippensburg Township Park and hike to the trailhead in Newville. Transportation will be provided from Newville back to the park in time for you to get lunch and enjoy the live music. The only requirement is that you give yourself enough time to get to Newville before the bus bringing the 15k racers to the start is ready to leave at 1 PM. A water stop will be available in Oakville.
