3. Go Hiking
The Poconos beautiful landscape is the main attraction for visitors in this area. From cross-country skiing in the winter to swimming in the summer, there’s no shortage of outdoor adventure during any time of year. We recommend exploring these hiking trails in the Poconos during your spring trip!
We recommend Bushkill Falls‘, also known as the “Niagara of Pennsylvania”, hiking trails for our spring visitors. This privately owned park is centered around eight waterfalls, which are in full effect during the spring thanks to increased rainfall. There are four trails at this park that vary in difficulty, making it a great option for hikers of all skill levels! Be sure to keep an eye out for the wildlife along your hike, as bird watching is another popular activity here.
4. Opt Indoors
Spring is the rainiest season in the Poconos, so it’s possible that there may be some showers in the forecast during your trip. Don’t worry! There are plenty of great things to do indoors like shopping, antiquing, and more.
