Tioga
Region |
Entering Pennsylvania's Northern Tier, shaped by massive continental glaciers, Tioga Region continues the challenging backcountry hiking experience of MST through deeply wooded high plateau, and really rural low hills. The views continue and the terrain becomes ever more varied, offering pleasant natural and cultural discoveries around each bend and over every knob.

Tioga Region construction began in 2002 at Cowanesque Lake, with intent to finish the footpath across PA, and to connect to Finger Lakes Trail/North Country National Scenic Trail just over the New York line.
MST in Tioga Region is projected to link Tioga State Forest; State Game Lands No. 268 and No. 37; Hills Creek State Park; Tioga-Hammond Lakes; Cowanesque Lake, and over a dozen willing private landowners through Tioga County. This is an all volunteer effort sponsored by our private non-profit membership organization.
