Welcome

Allegheny National Forest

One of the many features of the Allegheny National Forest is the Allegheny Reservoir. The Kinzua Dam impounds the 12,000 acre, 27 mile long Allegheny Reservoir. You'll find many recreation opportunities here, including swimming, fishing, boating, water skiing, hiking and camping, to those who enjoy a leisurely scenic drive.

Dirt bikers, ATVers, cross country skiers, mountain bikers and snowmobilers will love the loop trails that wind through the hills. Foot trails ranging from one half mile Interpretive Trails to the 87 mile North Country National Scenic Trail traverse the terrain.

Allegheny National Forest Recreation Facilities Analysis

Recreation Facility Analysis is a process of national scope with local forest emphasis. Each national forest is using this process to develop a 5-year proposed "Program of Work" to better manage and improve the quality of recreation sites. All forests are scheduled to complete this initial phase of the Recreation Facility Analysis process by the end of 2008.
