Celebrate Spring in the PA Endless Mountains

Goodbye, winter blues, and hello to sunshine, flowers, and fun! Springtime is when the mountains come back to life—all the better to head outside and explore. Whether you hit the trails or stroll through the local shops, you’ll discover a refreshing spring getaway in the Endless Mountains of Northeastern Pennsylvania.

One of the most amazing spectacles of spring is the tulip field at Brown Hill Farms in Tunkhannock, PA. This family-run farm raises five acres of tulips and daffodils each year—that’s over 500,000 blooms! Perched on top of a hill, the views are nothing short of awe-inspiring. Visitors can wander through the fields, pick their own bouquets, and snap pictures at stunning photo ops. You can easily spend all afternoon meeting the adorable animals, shopping in the farm store, and watching the kids enjoy the many play areas. Brown Hill Farms is typically open for tulip season in late April through early May. However, it all depends on Mother Nature, so make sure to confirm farm hours in advance.

When the snow and ice finally melt away, the popular Falls Trail at Ricketts Glen State Park reopens for the season. This challenging trail showcases 21 waterfalls in one epic day hike. The tallest, Ganoga Falls, is a breathtaking 94 feet tall! The full 7.2-mile trek will lead you to all of the falls. A shorter 3.2-mile loop with the Highland Trail will allow you to see most of the falls and the surrounding old-growth forest. Please note, this trail is steep and slippery, so come prepared with proper shoes and gear.

Spring also marks the return of Pennsylvania’s trout season, which will begin on April 4, 2026. The Endless Mountains are home to excellent stocked trout waters, such as the Loyalsock Creek and the South Branch Tunkhannock Creek. Our local parks and state lands are also peaceful spots to cast a line.

When it’s time to kick back and relax, head to one of our local wineries and breweries. With ten different tastings rooms in and around the Endless Mountains, you can easily turn a long weekend into a wine tour. In addition to fine wine and craft brews, you’ll also find unique options like hard ciders and locally made meads.

After a long day, spend the night in one of our local accommodations, from modern hotels to historic bed and breakfasts to cute cabin rentals. You can view a full list of lodging option here.
