Coal Creek Historic Park

"This is a fascinating area to explore in Cumberland. The park offers a glimpse into the village's rich coal mining history while providing outdoor recreation opportunities. This park, covering over 230 acres, was once the site of a bustling Japanese Town and the hub of the coal mining industry in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Today, it's a mix of history and nature, with remnants of its industrial past scattered throughout the forested trails. The park is crisscrossed with well-maintained trails, making it an excellent spot for hiking and mountain biking. The park connects with other popular trail networks in Cumberland, such as the Cumberland Forest and the mountain biking trails the area is famous for. "
