About Worlds End State Park

Worlds End is a 780-acre state park in a narrow S-shaped valley of Loyalsock Creek, just south of Forksville in Sullivan County. The Civilian Conservation Corps built its cabins, roads, the Canyon Vista lookout and the creek swimming area in the 1930s, and 19 of those cabins form a historic district. You can camp in tents or cabins, swim, fish, hike and paddle whitewater on the creek. Entry is free and the park is open sunrise to sunset all year.
