This is my go to place for birding. I've seen over 200 species of birds here to include over around 17 species of warblers. I recommend the homestead trail for spring and fall warblers. Just don't go on Thursday or Fridays between 10-2 as there's always bus loads of kids running around and screaming, scaring off all the wildlife. I'd rather them running around yelling there than at home playing video games though, at least they're out in nature. Hopefully there's a couple of their groups that will fall in love with the outdoors and will be good conservationists. Also watch for dog poop on the Henry wood's trail as there are many inconsiderate people who don't clean up after their dogs, I mean a LOT of them. Also watch for horse poop all over the trails that allow them especially if you're riding a bike. Most of the trails are all use trails that allow biking, walking and horseback riding. Try and avoid the areas around the parking lots as they're usually the busiest areas. The hummingbird gardens is an awesome area, there's lots of wildlife in and around the area if you can find a time when there aren't a lot of people. My best days for birding have been when it's cold or rainy and hardly anyone is there. On nice sunny days it can get very busy, especially on the weekends. The volunteers there have done a lot of good there, with clearing the trails, putting up nesting boxes, removing invasive species of plants and have really cleaned up all around the park. Your guys effort does not go unnoticed. From someone who is there easily 150 times per year I know it takes a lot of time and hard work to keep up with mother nature. Without everyone pitching in to keep this place nice it would be destroyed in no time.

Did a nice guided wildflower walk along Sober's Run today (4/19/2023). This state park with over 20 miles of trails is a gem; Henry's Woods, Bushkill Creek, it's old growth Hemlocks, White Pines & Tulip trees & history make it ideal for all ages. Just go! (Bluebells added a week later).

It is a wonderful park full of history and beautiful places to photograph, trek, and walk your pet. The only thing is that the visitor center is closed on weekends and it is unfortunate because that is when perhaps we need your support for advice the most, but there will be reasons for it. They have parking and restrooms available. It's a beautiful park..!!

It’s beautiful here. If you are interested please do yourself a favor and go!!

Beautiful park and the center was very helpful in answering my questions. If you are into history, there is a trail with historical buildings. A nice creek and also horse trails.

My favorite local place for an easy hike that’s pet friendly. Great on a hot day because you can walk in or dip your feet in the creek. As a rock hunting fan, it was exciting because there was tons of quartz and other rocks and debris left over from when there was a forge at the park.

Great place for a beautiful hike! Go on a weekday to avoid the crowds. The new modern building has a nice restroom and information but you want to pull into the other lot. Head past the information kiosk and go over the bridge near the restrooms and take the old growth trail Henry’s Woods along the creek. It’s amazing! Restrooms near the trailhead there, by the bridge don’t have paper towels, but are also nice. Free state park, free parking, free natural beauty. Escape the city and renew in Nature. 🍁☀️ 🌲

Love this place. Such a peaceful park and the trails are clean and taken care of! I love to do a quick hike around the stream or head up into the fields for a longer one.

I visited on a Sunday Center is closed but restroom area is open very convenient. Plenty of parking Pet friendly

Stunning scenery and very well maintained walking trails. Would recommend as a great place to hike and walk from beginners to more experienced hikers. One of the best facilities around.

Great park, the pavilion is a great place to meet at. I went when it rained, though it was still really nice. I should've brought boots, because when I went on the "Blue Blazed" trail, my shoes were completely soaked. My fault I guess lol. Beautiful landscape, though the trail I went on followed right along the edge of somebody's home.

What a beautiful place to spend the day. So peaceful and serene.

A must go magical place for all seasons. Take a swim in the kid and dog-friendly creek/river! This place will never disappoint you. Try going very early before others arrive for an even more peaceful and heavenly experience.

Although the main part of the park has lost quite a bit of the authentic natural nature wonderment I grew up with, it is still a beautiful park to explore. What I cherish is it is a wonderful place for families, dogs welcomed, PLENTY of trails for all skills and length. Gorgeous bird watching, natural stream to fish in when stocked and to wade in- dogs too. Abundant material to learn about the different aspects of the park, activities offered and information to get involved. I grew up knowing this State Park like it was my backyard for my entire life. Many memories with my Dad since I was very little, I took my daughter there growing up and it's so very nostalgic to me at 50.💗

Very nice trail for hiking. Highly recommended

Beautiful area!!! The walking trail was great and there was a lot of happy dogs!!! This is also a good place for fishing.

Wow things have changed over the years... been a good 8 years since the last I was there... it was very busy so many more people than there ever used to be... we did find trails that we barely ran into anyone... will we go back again?? Without a doubt!!! We loved every minute that we were there... many new memories

I wish I have been here sooner! Dog friendly and beautiful kept park! Highly recommend

Beautiful park with a great loop to walk or run it is about 1.5 miles. I love coming here with my pup! We feel so refreshed after a nice walk.

Took our first hike in the park today. Lots of interesting plants and insects to see. We’ll be back soon and definitely want to see it in the Fall.

Arrived early enough to get a parking spot near Henry's Woods trail. Very nice trails to walk with maps available. Met some riders on horses as well as other people walking with dogs and children. Easy level trails for the most part and a few steeper trails.

I love this place for it's trails. Some trails are for you to walk with your dog, bike riding and other trails are for horse riding. Stunning rock formations by the water aside from seeing the Jacobsburg homes and reading their story while walking the trails. While you are walking you can get a feeling of how it was living there in those times. Interesting.... Some animals & beautiful birds in these trails. 👍👍👍 Bathrooms and parking available.

Even though it was a crowded walk on a Saturday at 11am, it was still peaceful. Well kept and wide trail unless you go off the main trail into smaller ones. The only even-better-if : trail markings could be a bit more clear / new signage. The access to the creek is my favorite part because my dog loves cooling off. *Don't forget to tick check yourself and dogs after you leave!*

We drove 1.5 hours but it absolutely worth it, we loved every corner of it. It has very beautiful landscapes and easy trails. Most importantly it is kids and dogs friendly. Btw, be careful at the picnic area our son had tick bite.

Did Sobers Run loop. Easy trail , mostly level. Not a lot of people the day we went. Was very buggy. Trail not adequately marked. Had to use All Trails navigation to stay in the trail. It is a nice hike.
