Big Spring State Park reviews
9Trails well maintained and clearly marked. Didn't see anyone else on trail while we hiked.
The pavilions are big and beautiful. The trials are well marked. There is an abundance of black raspberries and wine berries. We can't wait to go back and explore more!
The picnic tables and floor in the pavilion are covered with something that looks like rat poop.the grills aren’t cleaned out and people put trash in the 2 sided brick unusable fireplace, no grill on it.pavilions aren’t maintained, no wonder no one goes there, there were 2 different cars there was all big no picnickers. It’s a very interesting place.
Nothing there but picnic tables no playground or anything. Bathrooms not swept.
Loved hiking tunnel trail. Just enough and not too far for little legs. My grandsons loved it.
Very peaceful and quiet. Also I intersects with a few trail heads. Had a lovely picnic lunch at the big pavilion.
Horror movie, there's old bridges with ovens, and other cool stuff. But overall it's a scary place, no data, Amish town.
This is an absolutely beautiful, stunning part of central PA only an hour from Harrisburg. Home to the oldest Hemlock trees in the eastern portion of the country. Lots of wildlife to see if you're quiet and look. Heads up, coming in from the east, there was no cell reception for about 15 minutes prior to reaching the park. That continued during my visit as I only had service pop in at one point when I was close to the top of a mountain.
Great walk with my dog and the outlook view was great. I couldn't find the tunnels. But my dog and I will be back to find them!
Good hiking trails and picnic area. A bit of a litter problem. The stamp for the stare park passport is located at Col Denning state park's entrance.
