  • For the better part of 50 years, the 40 Adirondack style shelters of the Laurel Highlands Hiking Trail have provided a safe and comfortable overnight for countless hikers. With use and the passage of time, however, some of the functionality of the shelters have been lost. A decade ago, the chimneys were rebuilt and the shelters painted. Now it is time to address the fireboxes, to keep those fires burning!

    Thanks to a donation from (and design by) trail aficionado Dale Yohe, all donors of $10 or more receive a limited edition LHHT sticker and $15 donors receive a patch. Donate $20 and receive both!

    Take a moment and donate now to the LHHT Fund. You may donate online or send your check (made payable to PPFF with LHHT in the memo) along with the attached form to:

    Pennsylvania Parks and Forests Foundation
    704 Lisburn Road, Suite 102
    Camp Hill, PA 17011

    The trail enjoys 100,000 visits every year and will mark its 50th anniversary in 2026. Look for the celebrations!

    Donate to the LHHT

    A world-class hiking trail deserves world class amenities, and your contribution to the project will make that a reality.
