And the many other volunteers, donors, funders, conservation organizations, and businesses who have contributed to corridor protection efforts.
The property is celebrated for its biodiversity, serving as an important natural greenway and an officially recognized Core Habitat by the Pennsylvania Natural Heritage Program. It protects a remarkable stretch of the Turtle Creek Gorge, reserving mature forest, towering rock outcroppings, and the natural beauty experienced by nearly 180,000 visitors to the the Westmoreland Heritage Trail each year.
We hope to see you there! 🚲
