About Samuel S. Lewis State Park

Samuel S. Lewis State Park covers about 85 acres in southcentral Pennsylvania. Its main feature is Mt. Pisgah, a ridge rising roughly 885 feet that divides the Kreutz Creek Valley from the East Prospect Valley. Open grass fields sit on the northern and eastern slopes, a pine planting occupies the south, and mature woods cover the west. Visitors can hike, picnic, fly kites, watch wildlife, and enjoy sightseeing, and an overlook on the ridge offers views across the Susquehanna River Valley. Hunting is not permitted here. The park also runs education programs, mostly from May through October, for school and organized groups.
