• Situated in the heart of northwest Pennsylvania’s marvelous old-growth forests, the Cook Forest State Park provides an ideal opportunity for an active back-to-nature vacation.
  • From April to December, you can pitch a tent or park your RV on a serviced camp site to be right at the heart of the action. (Rustic cabins are available year-round).
  • You can go hiking along 47 miles of scenic trails through the forests or along the banks of the Clarion River, or have days of fun on the water – canoes and kayaks are available for rental, or you can bring your own boat and use the public launch area.
  • There are 13 miles of biking trails and a few great bridle paths for horseback riding.
  • In winter, the park offers cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, ice skating, and sledding.
