Pennsylvania Angler & Boater - September/October 2020 - 7
Forksville covered bridge
High Rock Vista, Worlds End State Park Visitor Center
Approximately half of the sites have electric hookups.
The campground is generally open from April through
hunting season in December.
The park's swimming area was created by a dam built
by the CCC. There is no lifeguard, and the mountain
waters are on the chilly side, but the water is exhilarating,
especially in the heat of summer. The swimming area is
open from Memorial Day through Labor Day.
Day visitors
Further south, off Route 87, is Dry Run Falls, accessible
by a short back road drive. This waterfall is practically roadside. When the water flow is good, it is beautiful.
Worlds End State Park is not just for three-season visitors
though. Winter activities are always available, though
some roads are impassable during the winter months.
Snowmobiling is popular, and several miles of park roads
are used as joint-use snowmobile trails. A 20-mile cross
country ski network is also close to the park. The park's
cabins are available to rent during the winter.
Worlds End State Park is located about 2 hours northeast
of Harrisburg. It is a 4-hour trip from Pittsburgh and a
3-hour trip from Philadelphia. Plan for a 45 minute drive
from Route 80 and Montoursville.
This state park is truly unique for its rugged geology and
isolation. It may be named Worlds End State Park, but it has
a lot to offer visitors.
For more information on visiting Worlds End State Park,
visit www.visitPAparks.com.
Spending the day at the park can be delightful. Five
large picnic pavilions are available and can be reserved.
There are also numerous tables in the main picnic area
just upstream of the swimming area. A food concession
and playground can be found at the picnic grounds.
While picnicking, birdwatchers can potentially
spot some of the over 200 species of birds that have
been seen in the park. The park has been designated a
"globally important habitat for bird conservation" by the
Audubon Society.
The modern Visitor
Center built in 2002 houses
an Environmental Education
and Interpretation Center.
Staff and volunteers provide
guided walks and interpretive
programs for visitors.
The scenery in the Loyalsock
State Forest is fabulous; it is
especially beautiful in the
summer and fall. The forest
seems to call to visitors to take
a drive along its back roads.
The Canyon Vista can be
reached by Mineral Spring
and Cold Run roads. This may
be the vista that inspired the
name of the park-Worlds End
State Park.
Nearby is the town of
Forksville, host to two covered
bridges-one in town and the
Dry Run Falls, Worlds End State Park
other just down the road.
