Laurel Summit State Park
About
Laurel Summit State Park is a 5-acre state park in Pennsylvania, about 3.4 miles from the town of Edie. The state park agency manages the land, and at this size it serves mainly as a compact stop and a starting point for the trails and rock that surround it. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical July highs reach about 75°F with lows near 58°F, based on averages from a nearby weather station at Laurel Summit, roughly 4 miles away at about 2,730 feet. Several trails begin almost at the park's edge. Fish Run Trail and Wolf Rocks Loop Trail are each about 0.1 mile away, and Spruce Flats Trail is about half a mile off. Climbers can reach Beam Rocks, about 1.5 miles from the park.
