Visiting the Pennsylvania Grand Canyon, and you want to know what there is to do? Here are some attractions and activities that both locals and visitors enjoy.

Vista Views    Colton Point on the  west rim of the canyon, and Leonard Harrison

on the east rim of the canyon offer spectacular views of the PA Canyon. These are the "Must See" vistas to visit.

Rails to Trails  One of the most popular attractions to the PA canyon is the biking & hiking trail, a

converted railroad bed that travels along Pine Creek at the floor of the PA Canyon.

Pine Creek Rich in history and scenic wonder, the Pine Creek
