Tionesta Lake

Us Army Corps of Engineers, Pennsylvania.

Winding its way through the rugged hills of northwestern Pennsylvania, Tionesta Lake offers a unique setting for a diversity of outdoor recreational fun. The Seneca named this area "where the water separates the land". Tionesta offers a rich history where narrow gauge railroads dotted the surrounding countryside hauling out virgin timber from the surrounding hillsides. Fishermen have found Tionesta to be enticing and productive. Another unique feature are the 48 lakeshore campsites that offer fishermen and families interested in camping along the lake the opportunity to do so.
