Pine Creek Outfitters is located 11 miles west of Wellsboro on US Route 6 along Pine Creek at the entrance to the PA Grand Canyon, 1 mile from the Rail Trail and the north end of the WRT. Our base has on-site launching of boats and is conveniently located for nearby access to hiking trails.  We sell hiking maps and trail-guides and our staff is very knowledgeable about the area.  We are 3/4 mile west of the Ansonia bridge .  Look for our red canoes and rough-cut building.

The Upper Pine has a leisurely pace, excellent scenery, waterfalls, wildflowers, wildlife, and good fishing.  It is ideal if you have small children, like to fish, are not sure of your ability to canoe class II-III rapids, or want a shorter trip than the 17-mile PA Grand Canyon.  Some even prefer the Upper Pine over the canyon.

First-time boater?  Then this is your stretch!  Try kayaking or canoeing on the Upper Pine to get some good experience before going through the 17-mile canyon.  There are some small—medium class I (easiest) rapids that are quite fun and relatively safe for beginners / novices.
