Evansburg State Park, Pennsylvania

For natural views that are both arresting and inviting, take a gander around Evansburg State Park, a stretch of old Mennonite land with an unusually cozy feel. Skippack Creek is a cool warm-water spot for trout fishing, and trails for hiking, biking and horseback riding take an afternoon outing to the next level. Curious visitors can take advantage of educational programs that offer an opportunity to learn about the surrounding environment and ecology in general. Over 100 acres of the park welcome hunters, and hey, we’re not kidding about the fishing. The creek is just serene on a mild summer’s day. Stop in for some old-school tent camping to get the full Evansburg experience.
