Kinzua Valley Trail (Kusel Segment)

The Kusel Segment of the Kinzua Valley Trail offers a peaceful and intimate woodland experience, following the north bank of the Kinzua Creek. This section of the trail is prized for its high-canopy shade and the gentle murmur of the creek as it flows toward the reservoir. It is a favored stretch for birdwatchers and casual walkers who appreciate the level, accessible path and the frequent opportunities to spot bald eagles or blue herons fishing along the water’s edge. The trail serves as a vital recreational link, preserving the corridor of the former Pennsylvania Railroad for modern multi-use enjoyment.
