Serving Mont Alto &
the South Mountain Base

Mont Alto's identity is tied to two distinct eras. The site was first home to the Mont Alto Iron Company, whose furnace opened in 1806, before becoming the location of the Pennsylvania State Forest Academy in 1903 — one of only three forestry schools in the nation at the time, alongside Yale and Biltmore. That academy became Penn State Mont Alto in 1929, and the campus still anchors the small mountain community today.

Nestled at the base of South Mountain and bordering the Caledonia and Mont Alto forest reserves, the village has a mix of established local homes and campus-adjacent housing. All of it sits on the same Cumberland Valley limestone geology found throughout the region.

Keystone PHS is proud to serve Mont Alto as a fully active part of our Franklin County territory. No after-hours fees — ever.
