About Hickory Run State Park

Boulder fields and stream valleys spread across 15,990 acres in the Pocono Mountains, making this one of the larger tracts of protected land in the state system. The terrain sits within Kidder and Penn Forest Townships and can be reached directly from both Interstate 476 and Interstate 80, without need for extended backroad travel. The scale of the acreage suggests a range of terrain for those exploring on foot or by vehicle.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
