Pennsylvania is a state will with amazing things to do in all 67 counties in the state. However, some of these region's receive higher levels of tourism spending than others.

After seeing the 2016 Economic Impact on Travel and Tourism in Pennsylvania report that was put out by the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development, I thought it would be interesting to look at my favorite things to do in each of Pennsylvania's 10 least visited counties (by tourism spending).

There are many great things to do in Pennsylvania's least-visited counties. Here are some of my favorites.

Cameron County

Cameron County is not only the state with the least amount of tourism dollars, but is also the least populated county in the state. Like many of the counties on this list, Cameron County is dominated by forested hillsides.

However, for me, the best thing to do here is visiting The Little Museum run by the Cameron County Historical Society. Located in a former schoolhouse, this is one of the best historical society museums in Pennsylvania and offers a look at the surprising amount of history that has come out of this area.

Sullivan County

Of all the counties on this list, Sullivan County is probably my favorite to visit. The second smallest county in the state by population, Sullivan County's land is mostly occupied by Loyalsock State Forest. At the heart of the forest is Worlds End State Park, which is at the heart of one of the best regions for outdoor exploration in the state.

Sullivan County also has a surprising number of museums with the Eagles Mere Air Museum and the Eagles Mere Auto Museum being two great highlights.

Fulton County

Fulton County is located in south-central Pennsylvania and is often skipped over by visitors heading to destinations to its east or west. However, that doesn't mean there aren't any interesting things to do here.

The Abandoned Pennsylvania Turnpike is an amazingly impressive spot and while the most popular access point is located in Bedford County, the majority of the roadway and its tunnels lie in Fulton County.

Those looking for natural beauty can enjoy hiking to the little-known Jarrett Falls on State Game Lands 53 near McConnellsburg.

Forest County

Forest County is in northwestern Pennsylvania, and, as the name implies, it is dominated by the Allegheny National Forest. It also has the distinction of being the only county in Pa. without a stoplight.

The Allegheny National Forest provides many great hiking opportunities, and I especially enjoy the hikes to Logan Falls and Pigeon Run Falls near Marienville. The county seat of Tionesta is also home to the oddly placed Sherman Memorial Lighthouse.

Juniata County

Juniata County sits north of Harrisburg and is home to the longest covered bridge in Pennsylvania: Academia-Pomeroy Covered Bridge. At over 275 feet in length, this bridge is well-worth visiting the county to see. In addition to this great bridge, Juniata County is home to two other historic covered bridges.

Potter County

Potter County is in north-central Pennsylvania and located along Route 6. Known as "God's Country," Potter County features a significant amount of natural beauty and rural charm. The highlight of any visit to the county is Cherry Springs State Park, which has the darkest skies on the east coast and is a great place to view the majesty of the nighttime sky. During the day, there are plenty of other state parks to keep you busy, along with the fantastic Pennsylvania Lumber Museum.

Perry County

Perry County is located just up the Susquehanna from Harrisburg, making it an easy place to explore for residents of the capital area. The Appalachian Trail runs through the county and offers several great hikes. One of these is the hike to Hawk Rock which offers fantastic views over the Susquehanna River Valley and nearby Duncannon. The county is also known for its many great covered bridges.

Wyoming County

Wyoming County in northeastern Pennsylvania is another great destination along Pa.'s Route 6. In addition to being the birthplace of baseball great Christy Mathewson, the county is known for the amazing Tunkhannock Viaduct. At one point in time, this imposing railroad bridge, which crosses 240 feet over the community of Nicholson, was the largest concrete structure in the world. If you're lucky, you might even see a train cross overhead.

Mifflin County

Mifflin County is located a short drive up Route 15 and is known best for its Amish community in Big Valley. While not as large as the community in Lancaster County, the Amish here are unique in that visitors can see three different buggy types among those that live here. The highlight is seeing the very odd yellow-topped buggies used by the Byler Amish in only this area of the state.

One great time to visit is during the Belleville Auction on Wednesdays.

Greene County

Located in the southwestern corner of Pennsylvania, Greene County is only a short drive from Pittsburgh, making it any easy destination to visit when in western Pa. The Greene County Historical Society Museum near Waynesburg offers a fantastic look back at the history of the county and how it has impacted the world. The county is also home to seven beautiful covered bridges that are worth seeing.
