From Harrisburg to the Maryland border, the river–and the parks, trails, and communities along its shore–all make up the Lower Section of the Susquehanna Greenway. Characterized by wide waters and steep cliffsides, this region is a playground for any recreationalist. Thanks to an abundance of conserved lands, the on-land opportunities to explore are many and varied.
