On the Youghiogheny River, the park is a very popular place for white water rafting and kayaking.
More than a dozen historical structures may be seen in the park, one of Philadelphia's main tourist destinations.
The "Water Gap," a 1000-foot-deep valley between both the mountain ridges, is the only feature that is more dramatic than the picturesque outlooks.
The park contains a number of beaches where you can find surf from waves that originate in Lake Erie.
There are hiking trails throughout the park, and there are lots of black cherry trees that offer nice shade during a picnic.
You can drive there or take one of the park's many walking pathways to the bottom memorial plaza.
Visitors may now walk and stand on a platform that overlooks the park on the 301-foot-tall and more than 2,000-foot-long bridge.
