Autumn is perhaps the most magical season of all. With the transformation of the landscape and the spookiest night of the year, fall promises so much for us to look forward to. But the time seems to simply slip by, especially when we have so many autumn adventures on our calendar. If you’re able to squeeze in another of those adventures, make it to Worlds End State Park, home to some of the best fall foliage in Forksville, Pennsylvania.
Keep an eye on the predicted peak of the fall foliage, so you can plan a visit to the cozy Worlds End State Park, a 780-acre natural attraction that's flanked by Loyalsock State Forest.
Worlds End State Park beckons visitors all year with such seasonal activities as swimming at the beach in the summer and cross-country skiing and snowmobiling during the winter.
While the park certainly deserves a visit in each season, it's simply spellbinding during the height of the fall foliage.
Trails range from easy to hard, and each offers spellbinding autumn views. If you're up for a short but sweet (and easy) trek, set off on the .02-mile Canyon Vista Trail.
However, it's also perfect for an autumn adventure, since you likely won't be dealing with high temperatures.
Even if you don't feel like hiking, why not bring a picnic along? You'll find several picnic tables, making it easy to have a meal and drink in the beauty of the surrounding landscape.
Since the park is open daily, all year, from sunrise to sunset, you may be able to catch a glorious autumn sunset at one of the scenic overlooks, an idyllic way to end your adventure.
