The Allegheny River – East Brady

The Wild and Scenic Allegheny River borders the western edge of Clarion County. It skirts alongside Foxburg and forms a sweeping loop around East Brady, nestled in the southern reaches of Clarion County. This stunning stretch features steep-sided wooded banks, catering to motorboats, canoes, and kayaks alike. Throughout the summer, anglers, boaters, and waterskiers converge here to relish the waterway’s offerings. Navigable upstream from Pittsburgh to East Brady, the river owes its accessibility to a series of locks and dams constructed in the early 20th century. Visitors can often spot hawks and eagles gliding on thermal currents above the river. During the recreational boating season, the East Brady access boasts a large dock and a two-lane ramp, providing convenient entry to this natural marvel.
