ROOSEVELT STATE PARK
ROOSEVELT STATE PARK
This 41-acre park is in an isolated area of the Seven Mountains region known as the Stone Creek Kettle. While this Centre County park is small in size, it is surrounded by an 80,000-acre block of Rothrock State Forest. Penn-Roosevelt is a good base for those seeking low-density recreation on this vast expanse of public land.
Fishing
Anglers can enjoy freshwater fishing in two lakes, offering species like bass, catfish and trout. Ice-fishing is available during winter months.



Picnicking
1. Roosevelt State Park offers numerous picnic tables and grills for visitors.
2. There are also pavilions available to rent for larger gatherings.
3. Picnic areas provide beautiful views of the park's natural scenery.
4. Visitors can enjoy a meal near playgrounds or hiking trails.
5. Some sites even have access to fishing spots, perfect for relaxing picnics.

Bicycling
Biking enthusiasts can explore 14 miles of trails, suitable for all skill levels. Be cautious; some paths are challenging.

Mountain biking is allowed on designated routes only. Always follow the park's rules and regulations to ensure safety.

The terrain varies from flat surfaces to steep hills, offering a diverse experience for cyclists but also potential risks.

Remember that helmets are required by law in Pennsylvania for bikers under age 12 - it's advisable at any age though!

Shared-use trails mean you might encounter hikers or horseback riders - always yield right-of-way accordingly and be respectful.

Check weather conditions before setting out as wet or icy tracks could increase chances of accidents significantly.

Ensure your bike equipment is well-maintained prior to embarking on these scenic yet potentially demanding rides within this natural haven.

During winter months, certain sections may not be accessible due to snowfall so plan ahead with caution in mind!
