What are the most unique parks in Pennsylvania?
Set off on a scenic hike at Abington Sculpture Park, a unique park in Pennsylvania. The trail only spans .65 of a mile, so it’s a pretty easy hike that’s bursting with unique artwork. The loop trail features several dozen art sculptures that are sure to inspire you and to make you think. For a truly unique experience, visit the park on the first day of winter (December 21). On that day, at exactly 12 p.m. Eastern Standard Time, the sunshine slivers through Winifred Lutz's stone tower. It’s the only time of the year to do that, and it’s breathtaking to see.
