Johnstown

The Johnstown Inclined Plane is an 896.5-foot funicular - the steepest vehicular incline in the world. Its 30' cars, which are large enough to hold 60 people, 6 motorcycles, or a vehicle, travel at the steepest grade for cars their size. The observation deck provides an extensive view of the greater Johnstown region.

There are two Johnstown Flood-related sites in the area. This park preserves the ruins of the South Fork Dam, part of the old lakebed, and some of the buildings of the South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club. A National Park Service-produced film, nicknamed "Black Friday," is shown at the visitor center.

Formed by the juncture of the Stonycreek River and the Little Conemaugh River. The park offers a location for viewing the confluence of these rivers and the Stone Bridge, the epicenter of so much disaster and mayhem during the flood of 1889. Point Park includes Point Stadium, and is just across the Stonycreek from the Johnstown Incline.

A 7-mile long, 1,350 foot deep gorge that was cut by the Conemaugh River through the Laurel Ridge Mountain. It is known as the deepest gap east of the Mississippi River, though other sources list this gap as being 1,560 feet deep, though just the third deepest in Pennsylvania. The water cutting through the terrain for millennium exposed some of the giant coal seams that made this area prosperous in the 1800s. The overlook is Haw's Pike or Rt. 56. There is a pull-off for the scenic overlook and parking.

Many visitors come to the Flight 93 National Memorial to remember the actions of the passengers and crew and the greater events of September 11, 2001.
