Spring Creek is a 25.2-mile-long (40.6 km)[1] tributary of Bald Eagle Creek in Centre County, Pennsylvania in the United States.[2][3]

Formed by springs near the base of Tussey Mountain, Spring Creek flows through Nittany Valley past State College.[4] It then flows through Spring Creek Canyon and through the town of Bellefonte, before eventually passing through a water gap in Bald Eagle Mountain. The stream joins Bald Eagle Creek in the town of Milesburg.

Recreation

Spring Creek is a popular outdoor recreation destination for kayaking, hiking, and fly fishing.[5][6][7] Throughout most of Spring Creek Canyon, the stream is paralleled by the Spring Creek Canyon Trail, offering public access.

Fly Fishing

Spring Creek is renowned as a popular fly fishing destination in the Northeast.[8][9][4] The stream is well-known for Fisherman's Paradise, a 1.12 mile section owned and managed by the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission.[10] The majority of Spring Creek is managed under Catch and Release, All-Tackle fishing regulations, however Fisherman's Paradise is specially managed under Catch and Release, Fly Fishing Only regulations.[11]

Benner Spring State Fish Hatchery, a 40 acre trout hatchery operated by the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission, is situated on Spring Creek. The stream, as well as nearby Benner Spring, provide water to the facility.[12]

Kayaking

Spring Creek is the site of a kayak and canoe slalom training center, located in Bellefonte.[13] Additionally, a class I whitewater run of roughly 2 miles exists from Bellefonte to the stream's mouth in Milesburg.[14]
