Description

Ricketts Glen State Park in Pennsylvania sets on 13,050 acres in Columbia, Luzerne, and Sullivan Counties. Ricketts Glen is a National Natural Landmark known for its old-growth forest and 24 water falls along the Kitchen Creek, which flows down the Allegheny Front escarpment from the Allegheny Plateau to the Ridge-and-Valley Appalachians. There are over 7.2 miles of trails (the full loop). To see most of the waterfalls, a 3.2 mile loop can be taken by going on Highland Trail and the Glen Leigh and Ganoga Glee sides of the trail. The trails follow along 21 waterfalls ranging in heights from 11 to 94 feet.
