• For Families and Fun

    • Pennsylvania’s state parks and forests offer adventure, wonder, and good times for  you and your friends and family. PPFF is happy to help connect you to the fun and perhaps find some Friends (our Chapters) to help you become more involved in passing a love for these special places and experiences to generations yet to come.

    What do you know about the health benefits of going outside to play? There are many! This video and others on our YouTube channel are full of surprises and good information.

    Our free Explore Near flyers direct you to the parks and forests near where you live or where you plan to visit:

    Need to build your skills or learn something new? Check out our comprehensive guide to Smartphone Apps for Your Outdoor Adventures and these other how-to guides:

    A great way to keep track of your outdoor adventures is with a copy of the Pennsylvania State Parks and State Forests Passport. Get your copy in the PPFF online store!

    What else is amazing? The great partners we work with, including Stick City Brewing Company and New Trail Brewing Company. They share the love of our public lands AND the mission of the Foundation and their craft beers are winning awards and fans across the state. Why? Clean water and great people!
