Fowlers Hollow State Park

Fowlers Hollow State Park is a 104-acre park nestled in a narrow valley carved by Fowler Hollow Run. The land connects to nearby Tuscarora State Forest with hiking trails that wind through the forested landscape.

Pennsylvania acquired this land in 1907 from Perry Lumber Company after decades of intensive logging had cleared the forest. The Civilian Conservation Corps later built stone fireplaces and facilities here during the Great Depression to restore the park.

The Civilian Conservation Corps constructed stone fireplaces and facilities throughout the park during the Great Depression as part of public works initiatives.

The park has 18 camping areas spread across the grounds, with designated spots for both trailers and tents available year-round. Access is straightforward via Fowlers Hollow Road with clear signage from the main entrance.

Fowler Hollow Run flowing through the park supports a brown trout population that makes year-round fishing possible for visitors. This thriving waterway emerged as the forest recovered from the earlier heavy logging.
