The photo contest allows professional and amateurs alike to vie for supremacy in a variety of categories, capturing all that is special and the memories that are made in our state parks and forests. Once selected each year, our photo showcase gallery is displayed in various ways – and the whole process begins again with the launch of a new contest each fall.
Our categories for 2025 are related to PPFF’s focus on the paths and trails of Pennsylvania’s state parks and forests. We’re encouraging our photographers (and everyone) to celebrate the experiences that take us on a favorite excursion – or offer a new experience.
- Beyond the Trail
- Comradery on the Trail
- Peaceful Easy Feeling
- Tales (or Tails) from the Trail
- Texture of the Trail
- Young Photographers (12-17)
