Taking an end-of-winter trip to the Poconos in Pennsylvania is a great way to enjoy the last bit of snow or welcome the early signs of spring. Here’s how you can make the most of it:
Outdoor Activities:
1. Skiing & Snowboarding -If there’s still snow, hit the slopes at Camelback, Jack Frost Big Boulder, or Blue Mountain for some final winter runs.
2. Snow Tubing-Perfect for a fun, low-effort winter activity at resorts like Shawnee Mountain or Camelback.
3. Hiking & Waterfalls- As the snow melts, trails open up. Visit Bushkill Falls, Dingmans Falls, or Hawk Falls to see them at full flow.
