Quehanna Trail

The Quehanna Trail is a 73.7-mile (118.6 km) hiking trail in north-central Pennsylvania, forming a loop through Moshannon State Forest and Elk State Forest. For about 34 miles, the trail traverses Quehanna Wild Area, and its main trailhead is at Parker Dam State Park. It also passes through two State Game Lands. There are also three cross-connector trails allowing shorter loop hikes of various lengths. A spur trail leads to the village of Wyside where the hiker can, via some relatively brief road walking, reach the western terminus of the Donut Hole Trail. The Quehanna Trail is known for visiting numerous vistas and a wide variety of landscapes, including open meadows that are relatively rare for this region of Pennsylvania, plus steep stream hollows, high plateau-tops, and several different forest ecosystems.
