Hooks Brook

Hooks Brook is a secluded and highly sought-after boat-in destination located on the western side of the Allegheny Reservoir. Accessible only by water or via a rugged hike from the Tracy Ridge trailhead, this area offers a handful of primitive campsites nestled along the banks of the brook as it enters the reservoir. It is a premier spot for those seeking total immersion in the forest, offering excellent opportunities for shoreline fishing and wildlife observation, including frequent sightings of bald eagles and black bears roaming the quiet western ridges.
