Ricketts Glen State Park
Waterfalls rule at one of Pennsylvania's most scenic state parks.
This park boasts a series of wild, free-flowing waterfalls, each cascading over rock-strewn clefts and into wading pools. The glens contain 24 named waterfalls, each of them a treasure. Start with the 7.2-mile falls trail to see all of them along Kitchen Creek.
Waterfalls range in height from 94 feet to 9 feet. See falls that have a straight drop, and find others that cascade over several rocks. Cool off thanks to the tree-lined trails going through an old-growth forest. Take part in Ice climbing the falls in winter, which is a popular pastime.
Check out Lake Jean, a 245-acre lake, for fishing, boating, and swimming. An ice cream stand near the beach offers a cold treat. Rent a boat or canoe for the day if you didn't bring your own. Lake Jean hosts the campground for your stay.
Campsites include 113 non-electric
