The Greater Renovo Area Heritage Park Association was created with the purpose of uniting, preserving, and promoting the history, heritage, and community pride of the Greater Renovo Area. The heritage park center has become the focal point of the area's ethnic, industrial, and commercial past. The park will illustrate how the past is tied to our present. The coal tipple that greets visitors who enter the western end of Renovo and serves as the town’s most visual reminder to its rich railroad past.

The park is 13 miles north of the intersection of PA 120 and PA 872 (outside of the village of Sinnemahoning). A 145-acre reservoir created by the George B. Stevenson dam provides excellent fishing and water recreation opportunities.

The abundance of wildlife within the park provides visitors with opportunities to view bald eagle, coyote, elk, and bobcat.

In addition, the park’s geographic location is excellent for visitors to explore the other treasures of the Lumber Heritage Region.

Less than a mile off Route 120 on Route 555 this monument pays tribute to the soldiers of the 42nd Infantry, known as the Bucktails, who fought in the Civil War. The Pennsylvania Bucktails were approximately 700 men from the counties of Elk, McKean, Tioga, and Cameron divided into seven companies. The men became known as the bucktails because each was given the tail of a buck which was tied to the soldier's cap.

Located in a Depression-era schoolhouse, one of only two of its style to still exist, the museum sits a few miles outside of the tiny county seat of Emporium, along Route 120 that runs through some of the state’s most inaccessible wilderness areas. From the outside, it’s the kind of place you would drive by without even thinking twice. However, to do so would be a major mistake for anyone who appreciates history.
