08:11 Theo N.
A forgotten world
Allegheny forest covering a wide region in northwestern Pennsylvania and southwestern New York, is one of the neglected areas stateside. The 400,000 ha Allegheny has no big cities, battlefields and historic sites yet, so nature here is still intact as when the first inhabitants arrived. The fact that no other region in the northeastern United States has many large forests, rivers, trails and rock forms like this place. Along with its important industrial history, Allegheny is the ideal place to become the first national park located between the Atlantic Ocean and the Great Lakes.
Paradise for people who love hiking
This area includes hills, valleys and formed by the movement of hundreds of rivers and streams flowing through the mountains. Allegheny is a paradise for hiking enthusiasts, exploring remote areas, and types of terrain from the cliff to the jungle. Most notably trail is the North Country Trail National Scenic Trail passing through 150 km of the Allegheny. It starts from New York, spanning 7,400 km across 7 states and ends at North Dakota.
Lake with a dark past
The Kinzua Lake was here since 1965 along with Kinzua dam built on the Allegheny River. Today, visitors often swim or boat on these reservoirs and do not know much about the history of this place. Almost every floating lands here belongs to the Seneca tribe. Hundreds of families living there were forced to leave when the valley had floods. During the dry season, the strong foundation of the Native American population was found at the bottom of the lake. Despite controversy about the history of the lake, the scenery of beauty is difficult to refuse.
Home of a hero
One of the most beautiful streets of the eastern United States is Route 62, which runs along the river in Allegheny, longer than 96 km between the two cities Flanklin and Warren in Pennsylvania. Riding the route, visitors can not only be able to watch the cliffs, valleys and rivers, but also to see many other beautiful cities. Route 62 runs through the city Tionesta, hometown hero Howard Zahniser. He is the author of the Royal Act 1964, to help preserve hundreds of thousands of hectares of the natural land of America.
