The Tionesta Recreation Area Campground is located on the Tionesta Lake project, below the Tionesta Dam. Please do not confuse this campground with Youghiogheny Lake's Outflow Campground.
Within the borders of Forest County, the state's least populated county, Tionesta Lake winds its way through the rugged hills of northwestern Pennsylvania. Nearly half of this county is public land including Tionesta Lake, the Allegheny National Forest, Cooks Forest State Park, Cornplanter and Clear Creek State Forests, the state fish hatchery, and state game lands.
The area offers a unique setting for a diversity of outdoor recreational opportunities such as camping, hunting, fishing, boating, hiking, water skiing, picnicking, sightseeing, and more. Fishermen have found the variety of fishing waters enticing and productive. Home to a remarkable variety of wildlife, Tionesta is known as one of Pennsylvania's best big game regions. Campers will find a welcome change of pace from everyday urban life.
