Hike PA is a resource for some of the best hiking and backpacking trails Pennsylvania has to offer. The Keystone State is a fantastic location for outdoor enthusiasts — beautiful parks and state game lands, rivers, mountains, and trails that vary from more urban settings in Philadelphia to remote backcountry in the Alleghenies.
This site is a labor of love, born from my passion for the outdoors and everything my adopted home state has to offer. I post updates as frequently as possible, including detailed trail guides and maps, links to related resources, and as many photos as possible so you can really get a feel for what a trail is like before trying it out yourself.
And if you have any tips or other information to add to the conversation, please leave a comment! Have a burning question? Contact me, and I’ll do what I can to help you find an answer. The hiker community is so generous, and collectively we have so much knowledge to share. Many people have helped me figure things out a long the way, and I welcome the opportunity to pay their kindness forward to others.
Whether you’re a newbie who’s just getting started on day hikes or an experienced long-distance trekker, I hope you find this information helpful and that it inspires you to go start new adventures — try a new trail, explore a new area of the state, and bring your friends and family along for the fun.
See you on trail!
