About the Book

Traverse high cliffs and descend into deep caves, trek to remote waterfalls, and explore urban oases in Scenic Natural Wonders of Pennsylvania. This book showcases what Pennsylvanians already know: this commonwealth offers far more than just Philadelphia and Pittsburgh. From the Laurel Highlands region's thundering Ohiopyle Falls to the northeast's Salt Springs State Park and everywhere in between, this book covers it all. Each of the 84 carefully selected wonders showcases Pennsylvania's diverse landscape. This book offers options for all levels of explorer, including roadside stops like Dry Run Falls to the strenuous nine-mile hike to the Pinnacle and Pulpit Rock. In this book you'll climb to the top of Mount Nittany, view 700 species of wildflower in Raccoon Creek's Wildflower Reserve, and take in sweeping views of the Susquehanna River from Hawk Rock. The description for each place shares information about the landmark and what to know when you get there. A must have for anyone who wants to get outside in Pennsylvania!
