Pros:
A lot of marks of trails
No people on trails, I walked 12 miles from 10 am till 2pm : haven't seen anyone.
Good picnic area by parks office
Cons:
Paths are no good, sometimes totally messed, full of mud
Kinda same thing all the way: forest, forest , forest. Not many things to see.
PS must stopped at knob scenic area ( about 4 miles if you turn from worlds end drive- like 10-15 min driving from park office).
PS2 : check map before starting, AllTrails map are not accurate in names -real 'worlds end trail' are not like in app. Also no cellphone service at the park.
Fun, went with my dog and buddy had good times!
had a great time. gets a bit busy in the afternoon.
Difficult but worth it! Nice scenic!
Did this in Oct of '15 on day 1 and Rickett's Glen the next day. Saw a Bobcat for the first time. As Always, I approached the animal to pet (please do not try this tho). Animal was very curious and aloud me to get within 8-10 feet from it. I posted some pics below. Didn't see a section to post the vid, when I was real close. Great place to hike. Found the cat on the road as we were leaving, just by 220. Have traveled all of USA to see specific animals. Took many many yrs to get these photos.
Love worlds end state park! The trail from double run to the top of the vista is very challenging but absolutely worth the hike for the view at the top. Have hiked here multiple times and will never tire of the view. Definitely wear appropriate footwear and be prepared to huff and puff if you're not in shape! Also, took my dogs and they loved the trail.
The trail is nice and typical of this part of Pennsylvanis woods, but the Forksville covered bridge made the trip special.
