Luzerne County

Introduction

By Joan Cutten


Pack a sense of adventure and head for the Pocono Mountains! With Historic Wilkes-Barre as its urban centerpiece, and Ricketts Glen State Park serving as its outdoor playground, Luzerne County offers something for everyone!

A driving tour of the county reveals rolling farmland and vast wooded tracts, while a walk through downtown Wilkes-Barre offers countless historic buildings. Luzerne County's parks offer secluded spots in which to enjoy the outdoors—with 22 waterfalls in Ricketts Glen alone!

The county's rivers include challenging whitewater as well as lazy bends—perfect for fly fishing. Championship golf courses dot the county, while quaint antique stores and farm stands populate quiet country roads.
