Gifford Pinchot state park is a large State Park and central
Pennsylvania dedicated to family usage. Several events are held here every
summer regarding concerts and camping trips, as there is a lot of land and a
lot of camping they can be done. In the center of the park is a large lake,
which you can feel free to rent out a kayak and go on, or bring your own kayak.
They also have rental paddle boats there, which can be used to take a swirl
around the lake.
Surrounding the lake and the park itself are several miles
worth of hiking trails, as well as a starting point to the northern part of the Heritage Rail Trail. The hiking
is very light and family-friendly. When hiking, you can also see a large
outdoor Frisbee Golf Course as well as some of the camping locations, cabins,
and Yurts. If you are into Pokémon go, there are plenty of Pokémon that are
found there as well, especially rare ones.
So ladies and gentlemen, pack your bags and picnic baskets,
visit the Nature Center, go on a hike, and learn about the wonders of
environmental chemist Gifford Pinchot. Because of this man's Legacy, York has a
large portion of land dedicated to recreational use, to be untouched by modern
life. Come by for a hike or a campout when you get the chance, and enjoy the
process of slowing down.
