This park offers a variety of activities, including hiking, fishing, and boating, all set against the stunning backdrop of Penn's Creek and the surrounding mountains.

The John & Ann Snyder Trail is an easy 0.6-mile out-and-back hike that provides picturesque views of Penn's Creek and Paddy Mountain.
