Quehanna Wild Area, Nature reserve in Pennsylvania, United States.
The Quehanna Wild Area spans 50,000 acres across Cameron, Clearfield, and Elk counties, featuring forests, wetlands, and numerous hiking trails through diverse landscapes.
Following Native American settlement and logging operations, the area underwent nuclear research activities in the 1950s before Pennsylvania established it as a protected zone in 1965.
The Marion Brooks Natural Area within Quehanna contains the largest white birch tree collection in the eastern United States, representing regional forest preservation.
Visitors can access 75 miles of marked trails throughout Moshannon and Elk State Forests, with designated areas for primitive camping and wildlife observation.
The Pennsylvania Audubon Society recognizes this area for its bird populations, while Table Run Falls presents a natural water formation accessible through Red Run Road.
