Paddling, Trout Fishing, Hiking, and Country Roads Map Book.
The geography of the Lower Susquehanna River is defined by its dramatic transition from the Appalachian Highlands to the Atlantic Coastal Plain. Flowing through south-central Pennsylvania and northeastern Maryland, the river carves a deep, rugged path through the Susquehanna Gorge, where it is flanked by steep, forested hillsides and rocky cliffs. Unlike many large rivers, the Lower Susquehanna is relatively shallow and wide, characterized by a rocky bed and numerous islands rather than a deep navigable channel. As it nears its end, the river drops significantly in elevation—a feature harnessed by massive hydroelectric dams like Holtwood and Conowingo—before finally emptying into the northern reaches of the Chesapeake Bay at Havre de Grace.
