Our Mission
The purposes of the STC are to build and maintain trails, aid in the conservation of wetlands and wildlife and promote good fellowship through the medium of hiking and nature study.
The Trail
Located in Pennsylvania's Potter and Clinton counties, the Susquehannock Trail System (STS) is an 84 mile loop hiking trail. It is marked with 2" x 6" orange paint blazes and occasionally an STS emblem. The STS offers the public a glimpse of Pennsylvania's crown jewel.
Part of the STS runs in conjunction with the Donut Hole Trail, and the STS also has a connecting link to the Black Forest Trail. There are also two cross-over trails available to provide hikers with the option of a shorter loop hike.
The most secluded section of the STS is a 10-mile stretch through PA's largest wild area, the Hammersley Wild Area, offering hikers access into part of the most remote and pristine nature Pennsylvania has to offer.
The Susquehannock Trail System (STS) is a series of 63 separate trails; most of which are old Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) fire trails. When the STS was originally laid out, we decided to keep the names that the CCC had given to each of these trails; and in turn having a system of trails instead of one long trail. We have broken the trail system into trail sections separated by the trailheads.
