A day spent driving through the park offers stunning panoramic views, with short walks leading to the best vantage points. In fall, the foliage adds even more beauty to the landscape. Wildlife sightings are common, especially bears, with the population ranging from 200 to 1000. Remember to practice safe viewing etiquette for both your safety and the animals.
Hiking options abound, from peaceful forest walks to challenging climbs like Old Rag or Hawksbill. If unsure about a hike, check with park counselors to find the best fit for your ability.
The park is divided into three districts, with the central area offering the most lodgings and services. Each district is worth exploring, and with time, visitors can experience each as its own unique adventure.
