Salt Springs State Park
It's a very beautiful place to soak up nature. Offers great picnic areas, park benches, tent and cabin camping and pavilions for parties. The trails were very well maintained and marked. You can hike the trails, walk thru the creek and climb the waterfalls. Good history with an old home, which is now a museum. The park is home to huge hemlock trees that are over 500 years old and is the only state park in Pennsylvania that is managed by a non-profit organization.
