Story

Located at the southern reaches of the Laurel Ridge, Ohiopyle State Park
encompasses approximately 20,500 acres of rugged natural beauty and serves
as the southern gateway to the Laurel Highlands. Passing through the heart of
the park, the rushing waters of the Youghiogheny [yaw-ki-gay-nee] River Gorge
are the centerpiece for Ohiopyle. The “Yough” [yawk] provides some of the best
whitewater boating in the eastern United States, as well as spectacular scenery.
Ohiopyle State Park is part of the protection and advocacy for this region by
participating in the Laurel Highlands Conservation Landscape Initiative (CLI).
This group is a partnership with landowners, community members, non-profit
organizations and other stakeholders to protect the natural resources and bring
community revitalization.
