About this map

The Allegheny River carves a deep, serpentine path through the landscape of Venango, Clarion, and Butler counties, forming the central corridor for several riverfront communities. The borough of Emlenton occupies a prominent bend in the river, serving as a focal point near the intersection of several major regional boundaries. Further downstream, the town of Foxburg sits at the confluence where the Clarion River meets the Allegheny, a site marked by the historic Memorial Episcopal Church of Our Father Cem.

Away from the riverbanks, the terrain rises into the highlands of St. Petersburg and the small settlement of Mariasville. The N Country National Scenic Trail winds through the area, following the river's contours and crossing through Dotter and Wood Hill. This map also documents the localized water systems of the region, from the expansive Kahle Lake in the north to the smaller drainages of Richey Run and Lowrey Run.
