State Parks, Forests Roll Out Welcome Mat For Summer Visitors
|
Pennsylvania’s forest and park system offers a wide range of ways for visitors to enjoy spending time outdoors during the summer, according to the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources.
“Summer memories of times in the outdoors are truly priceless, and the good news is we have plenty of affordable opportunities to create those memories in our state parks and forests,” said DCNR Secretary Richard Allan. “With 2.2-million acres of state forests, and 120 state parks covering 300,000 acres, there is a state park within 25 miles of nearly every Pennsylvanian.
“If we have good weather this weekend, we anticipate it will be a very busy holiday in our state parks and forests,” Allan said. “A look at our overnight reservations indicates many of our campgrounds at parks will be at or near capacity for the Memorial Day weekend.”
