Tidioute Overlook
Tidioute Overlook offers scenic views of the Allegheny River and the historic town of Tidioute, named for the Allegheny River with the Iroquoian word meaning "protrusion of land", which refers to the sharp bend in the Allegheny River where the town is located.
The paths from the parking area create a loop that go to the two overlooks. The path to the left will lead visitors to views of the 120-year-old town of Tidioute, while heading to the right will take visitors to views of the Allegheny River Valley and Allegheny Wilderness Islands.
