The 2,133-foot high Camelback Mountain is part of the Big Pocono State Park in the Pocono Mountains, about 15 miles from the Delaware Water Gap. It is the highest mountain in the Poconos. The mountain is best known for the ski resort and waterpark on its northern slopes. It has about 7 miles of rocky trails to offer, with only one trail that starts from the base. Many people use the ski slopes to get up the mountain. The best trail is the 1.3-mile loop Indian Trail, which stretches from the summit to ledges along the shoulders of the mountain. Hikers can enjoy great views of the Delaware Water Gap from this trail. Camelback Mountain is famous for the huge number of blueberry bushes that cover the higher mountain slopes. There are also some raspberries and wild strawberries when in season.??
