"COLTON POINT STATE PARK" Wellsboro Things to Do Tip by mtncorg

Colton Point State Park protects some 368 acres along the west rim of the Pine Creek Gorge. You reach the park via a 5 mile paved road that winds through the trees starting in Ansonia which US 6 runs through. The park was developed by the Civilian Conservation Corps between 1933 and 1936. There are a few rustic campsites at the park and several large open-air pavilions for group picnics, as well. Several trails extend into the woods atop the Point, though most visitors will probably simply drive to a couple of the car park overlooks to snap a few pictures. The first viewpoint is arguably the best, some 650 feet above Pine Creek. From the viewpoints at the end of the Point, you have a nice straight look across the Gorge to the viewpoint on the east rim at Leonard Harrison State Park.
