We love New Trail and all the work they do for the PA outdoors. The beers are always good, and there is plenty of outdoor space when the weather is nice. We always detour to visit when we're anywhere remotely close by.

You can get to Ricketts Glen in about 45 minutes from Williamsport. We spent the night in town so we could get out to Ricketts Glen earlier in the morning. The Falls Trail is a must-hike in spring.

This is often said to be one of the best hikes in PA, and we were sad to have had to rush through the end because of a thunderstorm. Beware the timber rattlesnakes during the warmer months. We saved this trail for late November because of them.
