PA Wilds Outdoor Discovery Atlas Showcases Rural Region's Unique Recreation, Travel Destination Assets


On February 3, the
PA Wilds Center for Entrepreneurship has released a new online and print PA Wilds Outdoor Discovery Atlas of travel inspiration and useful details for navigating to some of the region’s most popular destinations as well as other points of interest.

The Pennsylvania Wilds is a 13-county region that includes the counties of Cameron, Clarion, Clearfield, Clinton, Elk, Forest, Jefferson, Lycoming, McKean, Potter, Tioga, Warren, and northern Centre. 

“This is the first PA Wilds-branded print map of the region since 2010,” said Ta Enos, CEO of the PA Wilds Center for Entrepreneurship (PA Wilds Center), the nonprofit that produced the Atlas. “So much has changed on the ground since then, with new state-of-the-art visitor centers, trail connections and other outdoor rec asset improvements in so many communities. When the PA Wilds core marketing infrastructure integrated into our nonprofit in 2016-17, the map project was at the top of our list to overhaul and get back into print.”

“DCNR’s partnership with PA Wilds Center to collaborate and lead work in the PA Wilds Conservation Landscape has resulted in tangible and useful products like this one that assists DCNR in its mission to provide excellent visitor experiences to all who seek to explore the more than 2.2 million acres of public land in the region,” said Meredith Hill, DCNR’s PA Wilds and Conservation Landscape Program Director. “We were glad to help support the creation of this very worthwhile new resource especially at a time when visitation to our state parks and forests is at an all-time high as people seek the outdoors as a place of solace during the COVID pandemic.”
