Very knowledgeable, enthusiastic young man gave us a tour of this train depot museum, sharing lots of human interest stories. If you are interested in the 1800's , especially the civil war, segregation, lobo wolves - you will enjoy this museum. I wish I had bought one of the books on Kane at the giftshop as I forget some of the names and details of its very accomplished families and interesting history. A former slave whose name I forget, became a very successful entrepreneur and prominent in the community. Kane was never segregated by race, even when the train station waiting rooms were segregated by sex. I called for the hours, and even though the museum wasn't open on Tuesdays we were told to come and he would open to give us a tour.

This place was on my bucket list. So after taking my son to his hockey game 2 hours from our house in Bradford. I said we are stopping at Zippo. He didn't seem to thrilled. But he seemed to enjoy it. Loved the Zippo American flag. Great gift shop. Was neat to learn the history. Friendly staff.

The 339-acre Kinzua Bridge State Park, is the home of the reinvented Kinzua Viaduct. The Viaduct, once the longest and tallest railroad structure at 2,053 feet long and 301 feet high, was partially destroyed by a tornado in 2003. Reinvented as a pedestrian walkway during 2011, visitors can stroll 624 feet out on the remaining support towers, peer miles out into the Kinzua Gorge, and gaze down through the partial glass platform at the end of the walkway. The Kinzua Bridge State Park Visitor Center and Park Office features great views, self-guiding exhibits, and information about the surrounding area.

I absolutely love the Allegheny National Forest. We stopped at the Kinzua Visitor Center but it was closed due to Covid. Amazing photographs from this area overlooking the river and forests. Enough parking too. Worth the stop on the way to or from the dam.

Reviewed By Traventurz - Pittsburgh, United States
The alcohol here is really excellent, and is comparable to very high end brands. We asked about the informal tour and got to hear all about how they make their rum, vodka, and gin from one of the owners. Lots of fun! We got to try most of their products and were very impressed with all of them— walked away with three bottles more than we planned on ????. Great staff and owners. Hope to be back!!
