Worlds End State Park
About
Worlds End State Park is a 731-acre Pennsylvania state park about 2.4 miles from the town of Forksville. The state park agency manages it, and the park holds five campgrounds within its boundaries, making it a practical base for an overnight stay in the area. Summer brings the most comfortable conditions. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Laporte, about 5 miles away, show July highs around 78°F with lows near 58°F, while September cools to highs in the upper 60s. Several trails start close by. The Canyon Vista Trail is about a third of a mile away, and the Link Trail and Butternut Trail are each roughly 0.6 miles out. Loyalsock Creek, about a mile off, offers river fishing.
