The Valley Overlook
The Valley Overlook at Round Top Park in Athens, Pennsylvania is an easy 0.2-mile out-and-back walk that features two overlooks with views of the Sayre, PA Athens, PA and Waverly, NY - also known as "The Valley".This is not a hike but rather a quick walk through Round Top Park that connects two overlooks. Visitors will find the western-most overlook includes views of the Susquehanna River. Visitors can also locate an old U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey marker (control point) at the western-most overlook as well. Each overlook, as of May 2023, included swing benches for visitors to sit and enjoy the views.
