Lebo Red Pine Natural Area is a 124-acre (50 ha) protected area in Lycoming County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is part of Tiadaghton State Forest.[1][2]
The Natural Area protects a copse of naturally occurring and unplanted red pine trees, which is relatively uncommon in Pennsylvania.[1] These trees may have survived the Pennsylvania logging era of the late 1800s.[3] The area is only accessible via unmarked paths from a nearby gravel road.[2]
