The Wampum Chapter of the NCTA is working closely with the National Park
Service to build and promote the North Country National Scenic Trail in
Lawrence and Beaver Counties in Pennsylvania. The North Country NST will
be the country's longest National Scenic Trail. When it is completed, it
will be over 4,000 miles long.
The North Country Trail in Lawrence
and Beaver Counties travels through a variety of environments, including
McConnell's Mill State Park, PA State Game Lands 148, and PA State
Gamelands 285. Here in western Pennsylvania, the trail shows its true
beauty. Many historic and educational sites exist along the route.
Examples of these would be Watt's Mill in PA State Game Lands 285, the
borough of Wampum, and the Big Beaver Borough Wetlands project.
