Little Lyman Vista

Little Lyman Vista at Susquehannock State Forest in Abbott, Pennsylvania is an accessible roadside southeast-facing view of a mountainous plateau with views of Stony Peak and Twin Top Peak.

This is not a hike and just barely a walk, but rather a few steps out of your car to take in the views of the mountains at Little Lyman Vista. As of 2022-2023 a new mountain, Stony Peak, can be seen from this vista with its logged mountain slopes and a crown of trees at its summit. Stony Peak was officially named in 2023 with the U.S. Geological Survey by MyHikes' Founder Dave Miller after he and Tony Van Vugt scouted the mountain and hiked to the summit in 2022 and named it "Stony Peak" then. This is a great spot for folks to enjoy the mountains of the PA Wilds without having to do any hiking or really any walking if they choose not to or physically can't. If you choose to walk, the distance is negligible, but there are different vantage points from each end of the parking turnout. There's also a bench at the vista.
