If you're headed to the Allegheny National Forest Region of the PA Wilds, these 10 locations deserve a spot on your to-do list! When exploring the Allegheny National Forest, please help leave these spaces just as beautiful as you found them. Clean up after yourself, pack out what you pack in, and always practice Leave No Trace principles. It is also important to note that there is little to no cellular service in much of the region, downloading maps ahead of time is key. Follow along with me as I explore the mid-Atlantic region and share my favorite trails, stays and dog friendly adventures 📍 Cook Forest State Park: one of my favorite state parks in all of PA, this one is a MUST. Check out the fire tower, bounce on the suspension bridge over Toms Run, and stroll through the Forest Cathedral 📍 Rapp Run Falls: I will never NOT recommend this short and easy hike to a beautiful set of three waterfalls 📍 Kinzua Bridge State Park: *currently partially closed until fall* but worth a spot on your list if you can catch it while it's open. 📍 Hearts Content Scenic Area: a BEAUTIFUL and easy 1.1 mile hike through an old forest. 📍 Allegheny River/Allegheny Islands Wilderness: explore 7 federally protected wilderness islands in the middle of the Allegheny River 📍 Logan Falls: short (but a lil steep) hike to a beautiful multi tiered waterfall 📍 Rimrock Overlook: get beautiful views of Kinzua Bay 📍 Hector Falls: one of the most unique waterfalls in Pennsylvania, this one is best to visit in the spring or after a good rain. 📍 Minister Creek: one of my top 10 hikes in all of Pennsylvania, this one is popular for backpacking...but still also a perfect day hike. Forest strolls, creek crossing, rock mazes, and an epic overlook. 📍 Pigeon Falls: an easy hike down a horse trail that seems like nothing until you get to the waterfall and are immediately wowed. #alleghenynationalforest #pawilds #pastateparks #cookforest #kinzuabridge - @gotlost.onpurpose
