Description
Featuring all the allure and appeal of a national park, Ricketts Glen in central Pennsylvania is often cited as the best day hike in the East. With over 20 waterfalls within a 3.5 mile loop trail, this state park always ranks in the top tier. Its 26 miles of trails are set in a rugged landscape, highlighted with rocky cliffs, old growth timber and 13,000 acres of scenic beauty.
Although a majority of the forest area was clear-cut during the late 1800s, the falls area was spared. Offering one of the main attractions in the area, R. Bruce Ricketts opened the North Mountain House hotel, taking four years to construct waterfall trails.
