Born out of a disastrous flood and one of the first large
environmental protests in the US, the Delaware Water Gap National
Recreation Area now provides a 70,000-acre connection to the
natural world to four million visitors a year. This unit of the
National Park Service preserves historical sites that predate
English settlement in the New World and evidence of Native
Americans going back 13,000 years. Established in 1965, Delaware
Water Gap NRA also incorporates 40 miles of the Middle Delaware
National and Scenic Recreation River, 28 miles of the Appalachian
National Scenic Trail, a state forest, and state wildlife
management areas. Its many natural features include the highest
waterfalls in two states, plus a geological feature once recognized
as a scenic Wonder of the World. See why Conde Nast Traveler named
the Delaware Water Gap the most beautiful place in Pennsylvania.
