Moving Out of Wilkes-Barre

Founded in 1769, Wilkes-Barre started as small settler’s town but is now the thirteenth-largest city in Pennsylvania. Its proximity to Philadelphia and New York City make it a great place for business and higher education. And with beautiful forests and waterfalls nearby, you can easily escape to find peace. But with a move on the horizon, it’s time to start planning for what’s to come.

Explore Wilkes-Barre’s Waterfalls

The Wilkes-Barre area has some of Pennsylvania’s most breath-taking landscapes and waterfalls. Whether you’re leaving or settling in, seeing the beauty is worth the hike. Check out these five places:

• Falls Trail at Ricketts Glen State Park. This trail is a little challenging, but the view is rewarding. You’ll see more than 20 waterfalls as you walk along the 7.2-mile path.
• Seven Tubs Recreation Area. Discover 500 acres of streams, waterfalls and green forests. Get lost in nature as you listen for sounds of water rushing through the rocks.
• Little Shickshinny Falls. A short and easy hike will lead you to one of Wilkes-Barre’s most stunning waterfalls. The falls cascade from about 30-feet high and layers of sandstone rock surround them.
• Bear Creek Preserve. Explore over 3,000 acres of hiking trails, waterfalls and majestic overlooks. Bear Creek Falls (or Buttermilk Falls) is a popular sight in the area.
• Paddy Run Falls. This is a lesser-known trail but is worth the visit. There are two main waterfalls along with other smaller falls throughout the area.
