Hunting on Penn State Lands
All Penn State owned land represented on these maps which is not posted, not in a safety zone, or otherwise restricted can be considered open to hunting and trapping in accordance with current Pennsylvania game laws.
Some areas are posted "by Penn State Permit Only." These permits are rarely issued and intended for varmint control for that area.
Visitor (hunters and non-hunters) to Penn State land that is open to hunting are highly encouraged to wear fluorescent orange during all hunting seasons.
No motor vehicles of any kind, trucks, ATVs, four wheelers, three wheelers, motor bikes, or snowmobiles are permitted on any wood land, field or pasture at any time.
Erection or use of a permanent tree stand is prohibited. Portable tree stands (which do not harm the tree in any way) are permitted. They must be removed by the end of the hunting season.
Parked vehicles must not block gates or roads at any time.
