Sinnemahoning State Park

Welcome to Pennsylvania's Sinnemahoning State Park.

Park History: The first humans to inhabit this region are believed to have arrived over 12,000 years ago when glacial retreat was still carving out the landscape. The word Sinnemahoning is a Native American term that means "Rocky Lick." This salty rock is said to be located near the mouth of the Grove Run river and it is probably a popular place for the park's deer herds.

The construction of the railroads in the 19th century brought many loggers to this region interested in harvesting the forest resources. The park's Lowlands Bottom Trail is itself what remains of an old railroad bed that belonged to the Philadelphia and Erie Railroad. The State of Pennsylvania first opened this park in 1958.

Wildlife: Sinnemahoning State Park helps protect the home of numerous wild animals including elk, bobcats, coyotes, and bald eagles. Please treat their home with respect.

For the lover of the outdoors Sinnemahoning State Park boasts a 142 acre lake filled with all types of fish, 35 campsites, and much more. Come on out and explore.

Most of the campsites have electricity.
