Roads to

open on ANF

The Forest Service will open 139 forest roads in the Allegheny National Forest for hunter access on Sept. 22. Thirteen additional forest roads will open later in the season. Hunter roads lists, with specific opening and closing dates, for the Bradford and Marienville Ranger Districts are available on the forest website. Traditionally many of the normally gated roads are opened each fall to allow preseason scouting and legal hunting during select Pennsylvania hunt seasons. Unless otherwise posted, non-motorized use, including hiking, biking, and horseback riding, is always allowed on gated roads. Off-highway vehicle use is not allowed off the designated ATV/OHM trail system at any time.
