Best time to visit Fowlers Hollow State Park

Late May through early October is the prime window, when the campground is open and daytime temperatures are comfortable for hiking and trout fishing. Fall foliage in late September and October brings cool nights and colorful ridges, making it a favorite shoulder season for RV travelers. Spring can be wet and buggy but offers strong trout fishing after stocking. Winter is quiet and the campground is typically closed, though day-use access continues.

Things to do at Fowlers Hollow State Park

  • Tuscarora Trail Hiking Moderate
    RV parking available

    The Tuscarora Trail, a long-distance hiking path connecting to the Appalachian Trail system, passes through the park and adjacent state forest. Day hikers can sample ridge-top sections directly from the park. The trail climbs steadily out of the hollow, so expect a workout.

  • Trout Fishing on Fowlers Hollow Run Easy
    RV parking available

    Fowlers Hollow Run is a stocked trout stream flowing through the park, offering easy stream-side angling. Pennsylvania fishing licenses and trout permits are required. Spring stocking draws the biggest crowds.

  • Picnicking in the Day-Use Area Easy
    RV parking available

    A shaded picnic area with tables and a small pavilion sits along the stream near the campground. It makes a convenient lunch stop for visitors exploring the surrounding state forest. Restrooms are available seasonally.

  • Mountain Biking Tuscarora State Forest Roads Moderate
    RV parking available

    Miles of gravel forest roads and designated trails in the surrounding Tuscarora State Forest are open to mountain bikes. Riders can start directly from the park campground. Terrain ranges from gentle hollow bottoms to steep ridge climbs.

  • Hunting in Tuscarora State Forest Moderate
    RV parking available

    The public lands surrounding the park are open to hunting for deer, turkey, bear, and small game in season. A valid Pennsylvania hunting license is required. Fall rifle deer season is the busiest period.

  • Wildlife Watching and Birding Easy
    RV parking available

    The stream corridor and surrounding oak-hickory forest support songbirds, wild turkey, white-tailed deer, and occasional black bear. Early morning visits along the campground loop produce the best sightings. Binoculars are recommended.

  • Scenic Drives on State Forest Roads Easy
    RV parking available

    Paved and well-maintained gravel roads weave through Tuscarora State Forest with vistas over the ridges of central Pennsylvania. Smaller tow vehicles and dinghies handle these routes better than large motorhomes. Fall foliage drives are a highlight.

Nicholas was a great host. Very easy to reach and helpful. Everything was perfect for our 4th of July stay in the camper

He was great to work with. We even forgot to handoff the keys and he was very forgiving and gave us lots of options to get them returned.

Shawn and Melinda made it easy to hold a memorable Penn State tailgate, even for someone like me who is new to RV rental. The Beaver Stadium RV lot didn’t have RV hookups so they made sure we had water and extra gas for the generator. They thought if every detail. The RV was super clean and well-stocked. They had excellent communication and were so friendly and helpful. I would 100% rent from them again.

Ginger K. - Nov 2024

This was my first time renting an RV and it was the smoothest process! The hosts were in contact with me before delivery so I knew exactly when they would arrive. They were so friendly and set up the entire camper and gave me a tour. We had an awesome experience, thank you!

How to get to Fowlers Hollow State Park

The park lies in Perry County near New Germantown, roughly a 45 to 60 minute drive west of Harrisburg via US Route 322 and PA Route 274. From the Pittsburgh area plan on about 3 to 3.5 hours via the Pennsylvania Turnpike. The final approach uses narrow, winding state forest roads with limited shoulders, so larger motorhomes and trailers should take it slow, watch for low-hanging branches, and avoid shortcuts over unpaved mountain roads. Harrisburg International Airport (MDT) is the closest major airport for fly-and-rent RV trips.
