The Mont Alto Arboretum is an arboretum located on the Mont Alto campus of the Pennsylvania State University.

The arboretum was established on Arbor Day in 1905, just two years after the founding of the Pennsylvania State Forest Academy in Mont Alto. According to the college, on that day students searched for native tree species not present on campus, and brought back more than 400 specimens (30 species). These original plantings were then augmented by seeds from other trees native to the United States.
