This 156.85+/- acre mountain tract in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania is a large block of hunting and recreational land with a seller-owned access drive off Paxton Dr and views of the Susquehanna River and the valley below. Four parcels are being sold together as one tract, giving a buyer plenty of room to hunt, hike, and manage timber on a true central Pennsylvania mountain.
The terrain is steep and rocky across most of the property, which suits hunters and outdoorsmen who want room to roam and do not mind working for it. A timber harvest is currently underway, and the logging crew has put in an extensive network of roads throughout the tract.
Those roads give a new owner walking access to ground that would be hard to reach on foot otherwise, and they open up options for stand and blind locations, trail camera setups, hiking routes, and future land management. Buyers should know the harvest is in progress, so the look of the property will continue to change as the work finishes.
Two areas on the property have been cleared and are well suited to a small off-grid camp, cabin, tent, or platform, and both offer views of the Susquehanna River and the valley below. One sits near the top of the mountain. The other is further down, easier to reach, and larger than the upper site.
Either one would work for a small solar-powered setup. This is not a building site for a primary residence or a full-size cabin with electric, and a well or septic system is not practical here. The highest and best use is recreation and hunting. Whether you are looking for a private place to bowhunt, a base for ridge and valley hiking, a timber and
land management project, or a long-term recreational investment, this property gives you acreage and access to work with. The tract sits in the Upper Paxton Township area of northwestern Dauphin County, on the east side of the Susquehanna River, within reach of the river towns of Millersburg and Halifax and a straightforward drive to the Harrisburg area.
The Susquehanna offers fishing and boating nearby, and the historic Millersburg Ferry crosses the river to Perry County during the summer and fall season.
