The Greenways goal in Pennsylvania:
is to develop a distinguishable system of greenways that connects open spaces across the state, similar to our interstate highway system. You might think of greenways as "connections" that link our parks and open spaces to each other and to the places where we live. These greenways create entirely new ways of accessing and enjoying our land and water resources. |

So many places, so much variety, so much scenery...
