  • Overview

Allegheny National Forest is a National Forest located in northwestern Pennsylvania. The forest covers 512998acre of land. Within the forest is the Kinzua Dam, which created the Allegheny Reservoir. The administrative headquarters for the Allegheny National Forest is located in Warren, Pennsylvania. The Allegheny National Forest has two ranger stations, one in Marienville, located in Forest County, and the other in Bradford, located in McKean County.The Allegheny National Forest lies in the heart of Pennsylvania's oil and gas region, only 40mi from the site of the first oil well in the world. In 1981, about 17% of the state's total crude oil production came from mineral rights owned by private individuals within the Forest boundary. Because of its high paraffin content, Pennsylvania crude is one of the best lubricating oils in the world.[1]
