Mann's Run is a climbing area in Pennsylvania, set within the Manor Township Rail-Trail Acquisition on city land. The surrounding cluster of climbing spots makes it a compact destination for a day on the crag. The area holds 11 routes, with sport climbing the most common style, and the grades range from 5.6 to 5.11. Two of the sport routes are among the hardest, including Snoopy and the Red Baron at 5.11 and What's up Chuck? at 5.10. Easter Beagle is a trad climb at 5.6, and Pig Pen is another trad route at 5.9. There is also one boulder problem, so climbers with a range of preferences can find something to suit them here. For timing, late spring and early fall tend to be the most comfortable. Typical averages from a nearby weather station at Safe Harbor Dam show May highs around 72°F and September highs around 77°F, with July peaking near 87°F. Balcony Rock and Trailside are each about 0.1 mile away, and 2.0 International Area is about 0.4 mile off. Turkey Hill Trail, about 1.3 miles away, offers a nearby hike.
