Cherry Run access provides a Pennsylvania Fish Commission parking lot serving as the eastern trailhead for the Penn's Creek Path (Mid State Trail), a 2.

7-mile rail-trail offering easy, level access for hiking, mountain biking, and cross-country skiing along Penns Creek.

The location features pit toilets and drinking water, with direct access to a "catch and release" fishing area on Penns Creek and an abandoned railroad tunnel 3 miles west; note that the final 0. 5 mile approach is a narrow dirt road.
