Many of the
County Links above will keep you specifically in or near Montrose and Susquehanna County and the
PA Pocono Mountains.
Susquehanna County, located in the Northeast Mountains of Pennsylvania, covers 535,040 acres of mountainous country-side. The County was named for the North branch of the Susquehanna River, which first enters Pennsylvania in the Northeastern corner of the county, makes a loop and re-enters New York approximately 27 miles to the West.
Sixty percent of the County's land area is covered with forest. There are 169 natural water bodies and approximately 225 miles of flowing streams many of which are habitat for native trout.
The 405-acre Salt Springs State Park is seven miles north of Montrose in Susquehanna County. Focal points of the park are the towering old growth hemlock trees, many estimated to be over 300 years old, and the rocky gorge cut by Fall Brook with its three waterfalls.
The hills, valleys, lakes and streams all add to the "native beauty" everywhere you travel in Susquehanna County and the Endless Mountains in general.
