Details
Think waterfalls, wild forest, glowing creeks, and crisp mountain air — all wrapped in that golden late-fall magic. The Loyalsock–Link Loop is one of Pennsylvania’s top backpacking circuits, blending deep woods, canyon overlooks, and the famous Haystacks rock ledges on Loyalsock Creek.
It’s the perfect November trip: sheltered forest (no ridge wind!), flowing water everywhere, and full-on backcountry camping allowed on State Forest land.
