One of the “must see” state parks for your bucket list is located in Fayette County.
Ohiopyle State Park is a unique place to stay for a day or a week. It has everything that you could imagine being part of a natural resource.
The park is a place where mountains, rivers and major trails converge in one small community. It’s such a special attraction that more than 1 million people visit this park each year.
Scott Stough of Friendsville, Md., has been kayaking there since 1982, and we met up with him during my recent visit to the park.
“It’s convenient and it always has water,” he said about the powerful Youghiogheny River that includes numerous scenic waterfalls. He also said there are plenty of shuttle services for those riding kayaks down stream.

Mother Nature has been working her magic underground for millions of years using water, tectonic movement, and wind to create hidden worlds filled with incredible sculptures, massive flowstones, and delicate crystals. We know these subterranean worlds as caves or caverns, which provide valuable information about how our earth has evolved.
Over the years, caves have served as homes, burial grounds, and sites for religious practices. Because of the near-constant conditions in caverns, sensitive artifacts such as relics of ancient Indian civilizations and prehistoric animals remains are preserved within caves.
Most people donât realize what is under their feet. Much of the drinking water you and I enjoy flows through caves before reaching wells, springs, and aquifers.
