The best of urban and rural …
Just fifty miles by interstate from the urban life of Pittsburgh, but nestled in the natural beauty of northern Butler County, Slippery Rock is surrounded by scenic and wildlife areas. It will be a trailhead for the North Country National Scenic Trail which spans seven states. In addition to hiking and biking, area visitors enjoy boating, fishing, hunting, rock climbing and visiting historic sites such as the Old Stone House and McConnell’s Mill. Clusters of Amish farms are just a few miles away, and both visitors and residents enjoy purchasing homemade jams, baked goods, quilts and woodcrafts.
