Kline Hollow Run is a tributary of Devil Hole Run in Lycoming County and Columbia County, in Pennsylvania, in the United States. It is approximately 3.6 miles (5.8 km) long and flows through Jordan Township in Lycoming County and Pine Township in Columbia County. The stream is mostly surrounded by forested land and it is part of a Locally Significant Area listed on the Columbia County Natural Areas Inventory. Plantlife common in the vicinity of the stream include hemlock trees and trout inhabit the stream itself. The stream is considered to be an Exceptional Value stream.
Kline Hollow Run begins in a valley in Jordan Township, Lycoming County, a short distance south of Richarts Grove. It flows south for a few hundred feet before turning southwest. The stream then turns south-southeast and passes through a pond. Several tenths of a mile further downstream, it exits Jordan Township and Lycoming County.
Upon exiting Lycoming County, Kline Hollow Run enters Pine Township, Columbia County. It continues flowing south-southeast for more than a mile, receiving an unnamed tributary, before eventually gradually turning south. The stream's valley deepens as it flows south for more than a mile, passing by Huckleberry Ridge. Near the southern edge of Huckleberry Ridge, the stream reaches its confluence with Devil Hole Run.
The elevation near the mouth of Kline Hollow Run is 869 feet (265 m) above sea level. The elevation of the stream's source is between 1,220 feet (370 m) and 1,240 feet (380 m).
Kline Hollow Run is surrounded by a hollow known as Kline Hollow.Stormwater runoff from a sawmill discharges into the stream as of 2001.
Kline Hollow Run is in the United States Geological Survey quadrangle of Benton. Additionally, the stream is located in the northern part of Pine Township and is approximately one mile (two kilometers) west of the community of Derrs. The stream is within a large and mostly untouched block of forest. The only roads that are close to the stream are small private roads.
