Tioga State Forest

Tioga State Forest derives its name from the Seneca phrase “meeting of two rivers.” It covers 161,890 acres in Bradford and Tioga counties. The forest hosts the Pine Creek Gorge, also known as the “Grand Canyon of Pennsylvania.” Tioga features awe-inspiring views and miles of clean, cool streams, like Cedar Run and Babbs Creek and is one of eight state forests located in the PA Wilds region.

Road Not Plowed or Cindered

Which is not surpising, because the drop into the gorge is steep and swift. Within a mile, the road drops almost 700 feet. You climb and descend into the gorge in first gear the whole way.
