This trail has two portions. The connector between Indian Pipes Trail and River Mountain Road with an alternate route from near the River Mountain Road down to Faegins Gap.
Unless the section of Indian Pipes Trail has been renamed, this Bear Run Trail is half the distance shown on the Bays Mountain park map.  The distance from River Mountain Road over to the upper trailhead is 0.7 miles.
