Survey open through February 29
Lace up your hiking boots! The PA Wilds Center for Entrepreneurship has partnered with the Keystone Trails Association (KTA) to develop and publish a Pennsylvania Wilds-branded hiking guidebook for the Pennsylvania Wilds region.
The PA Wilds region is home to the greatest concentration of public lands in the commonwealth, more than 2 million acres, which includes more than 1,600 miles of trails. The hiking book is meant to highlight just some of the amazing trails and vistas that define the PA Wilds region as a premier outdoor recreation destination. The finished hiking book will include hiking trail options for all 13 counties that make up the PA Wilds region as well as stewardship messaging.
“The PA Wilds region is vast with a variety of unique landscapes that are full of rolling hills, gorges, trails, wildlife, and country roads. As the region has become more well known as an outdoor recreation destination, it creates the opportunity to create more consumer-facing guidebooks and maps to help unlock the region for a new generation of travelers,” said PA Wilds Center founder and CEO Ta Enos. “This book will complement other hiking books that are focused on specific parts of the region or certain experiences. It will also speak to our values of stewardship and exploration, making sure that readers are prepared for their hike and understand how to respect the natural beauty they’ll encounter, and will encourage them to connect with gateway communities and support local businesses.”
