Did you know? Where is the South Mountain? |
|
THE ANSWER: The South Mountain in Pennsylvania is at the northern end of the Blue Ridge Mountains, a narrow mountain range extending through Virginia and Maryland into Pennsylvania. South Mountain is an interstate greenway, a sort of natural thoroughfare. It is a large, linear corridor six to seven miles wide, linking Pennsylvania with southern natural areas. It extends about 40 miles in a northeast to southwest direction connecting Franklin, Cumberland, Adams, and York Counties. The beauty and recreation of South Mountain can be enjoyed at Mont Alto and Caledonia State Parks, the two oldest state parks in Pennsylvania. |
