Explore the massive sandstone formations at Bilger’s Rocks, over 300 million years old, and hike through the haunting ruins of Dead Man’s Hollow near McKeesport, known for its dark past and ghost stories. Visit the Austin Dam Ruins, where the remains of a collapsed dam serve as a reminder of one of Pennsylvania’s worst disasters.
For history lovers, Eckley Miners' Village offers a glimpse into Pennsylvania’s coal mining past, while the Gravity Railroad in Mount Pisgah takes you along one of the earliest gravity-powered railways. Thrill-seekers can explore the Abandoned Pennsylvania Turnpike, a 13-mile stretch of deserted road and tunnels, creating a post-apocalyptic feel.
Nature lovers will be amazed by the waterfalls at Ricketts Glen State Park and the crystal-clear night skies at Cherry Springs State Park, one of the best stargazing spots in the world. For something truly unique, visit the Haines Shoe House, shaped like a giant shoe, or the mystical Columcille Megalith Park, inspired by ancient Celtic traditions.
