Default Allegheny River and camping

Allegheny River
September 14 – 16
Please let us know if you will be paddling so we know who to look for.

We will be camping and paddling on the Allegheny River in the Allegheny National Forest in September.
For those who do not want to camp we will meet in the Buckaloons parking lot at 10 am Saturday morning and shuttle from there.
For those camping you have a choice of sites: with electric $23.00
Or without: $18.00 per day. There is also a $5.00 charge if you need to leave a car in the parking lot.
We usually cook and eat as a group if you would like to join us contact Pinky at 330-509-4262 to find out what too bring.


Buckaloons Campground sits at the confluence of the Allegheny River, Brokenstraw Creek and Irvine Run in northwestern Pennsylvania.
The Allegheny National Forest covers nearly half a million acres and is populated primarily with black cherry, maple and other hardwoods. The Kinzua Dam, built in 1965, impounds the Allegheny River to form the 25-mile-long Allegheny Reservoir.
Once the site of an Indian trading post, the Buckaloons Recreation Center has numerous apple trees through the area, as well as mixed hardwoods.
Water activities are the biggest draw to Buckaloons Recreation Center, including canoeing, kayaking, rafting and boating.
Facilities:
Buckaloons Recreation Area offers 57 family campsites, two double sites and a group tent site. Amenities include both flush and vault toilets, a pressurized water system, and hot showers
Getting There:
GPS Info. (Latitude, Longitude):
41.83972, -79.25639
41°50'23"N, 79°15'23"W

Just south of US Routes 6 and 62, turn right on first road, and left into the recreation area.
