A Natural Luzerne County Gem

The pristine, 48-acre, spring-fed Moon Lake serves as the centerpiece of this densely forested park in Hunlock Creek. The Moon Lake State Forest Recreation Area is an outdoor enthusiasts dream. Located within the reaches of the Pinchot State Forest, this recreation area is a local favorite for so many fresh air activities.

The park features natural and man-made mountain biking and hiking trails. The dense forests open up to bright, green fields, teeming with wildflowers. And the cool, trout-stocked lake is a popular stop during fishing season. Bird watchers clamor to Moon Lake throughout the year, and the abundant wildlife make for most interesting nature walks.
