Alan Seeger Natural Area, Protected forest area in Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania.
Alan Seeger Natural Area spans 390 acres along Standing Stone Creek, featuring extensive groves of white pine and hemlock trees within Rothrock State Forest.
The natural area, established in 1921, bears the name of American poet Alan Seeger, who died while serving in the French Foreign Legion during World War I.
The forest preserves several groves of large old-growth hemlock and white pine trees, with some specimens reaching over 500 years of age and 4 feet in diameter.
Visitors can explore a 0.8-mile loop trail with less than 30 feet elevation change, crossing Standing Stone Creek via multiple footbridges throughout the path.
The ancient trees survived the Pennsylvania logging era due to boundary disputes between logging companies, creating an untouched sanctuary within the forest.
