Clinton County, Administrative division in north-central Pennsylvania, United States.
Clinton County spans a large area in north-central Pennsylvania with the West Branch Susquehanna River as its main waterway, several creeks, and mountain terrain. The territory contains five state parks that shape its natural character.
The region was originally settled by Native Americans before coming under European control following the Second Treaty of Fort Stanwix in 1784. The county itself was established in 1839.
Lock Haven University shapes the educational life of the region and connects with local communities through its programs and activities. The campus serves as a gathering place for students and contributes to social life in surrounding towns.
The area is well connected by highways including Interstate 80 and US Route 220, which provide access to larger urban areas. A car makes it easy to explore the various parks and natural regions.
Sproul State Forest offers an extensive network of hiking trails through natural woodlands. This forest supports diverse wildlife throughout the year and remains less visited than other forest areas in the region.
