Mile marker 104 on the Great Allegheny Passage
December through April, please contact us before planning your visit. We do work in the studio all year, but since it gets pretty slow in winter, please let us know you’re coming so we won’t be in our PJs by the fire when you arrive.
Please Note: tours of The Ruins are available year-round by appointment only. Book a tour of The Ruins
Parking
There is ample parking at Sager Mosaics for up to six vehicles on both sides of River Road. Please park next to the woodshed or in front of the garage. The busy Great Allegheny Passage bike trail crosses River Road just past the Studio. Do not park on the bike trail or the ramp to The Ruins. Additional parking is available across the trail in a gravel lot near the river lot belonging to a neighbor. Large bike tour support vehicles can park in the gravel lot.
Accessibility
Sager Mosaics Studio is accessible from the parking area via a ramp or 6 steps. The tour of The Ruins Project takes about an hour and 15 minutes of walking and standing outdoors, primarily in shade. Chairs are placed along the route for resting. The pathways are dirt and gravel with uneven surfaces, and some short stretches of steep grades. The most challenging part of the tour is a set of 5 steep rough steps made of railroad ties. There is a railing on one side of the steps, and it is possible to adjust the route to avoid the steps if necessary. Many guests who use walkers or canes have been able to enjoy the tour. We do our best to adapt the pace of the tour to accommodate all participants, and we can make adjustments as needed. Please let us know about your accessibility needs.
There are no public restrooms on site. There are well maintained portable toilets 1/4 mile down the trail at the Whitsett trail access.
