Where the camps cluster

Where these came from

Sites come from the Pennsylvania Bureau of Forestry's motorized and primitive camping data for this state forest. Pennsylvania requires a free camping permit for most state forest camping -- check the district office before you go.

There is no field guide to this state forest yet — we write those from sources we can cite, and we have not done this one. The map, the camps and the costs are ready now.

These camps come from state and federal agency records, not from a visit — except where a camp page says otherwise. No boundary is drawn for this state forest because we do not hold its polygon; the dots are the camps, not the edge of the land. Permits, seasons and fire rules change: confirm with the managing office before you go. Found a fee where we show free? Tell us on the contact page.
