Gillespie Point is a popular hiking destination. The trail leading up to it is part of the Mid-State Trail, so follow the orange blaze. This will take you to a scenic overlook with panoramic views of the surrounding area, including Pine Creek and the canyon.

The Round Top Trail leads up to the summit of Round Top/1360, the highest point in the park. Though it's only a short trail it's also the steepest in the park so you'll feel it in your legs and lungs.

Though Laurel Summit State Park is only 6 acres, the trails that start run for miles through Forbes State Forest and along the Laurel Ridge.

Laurel Summit State Park offers a wide picnic area accessible from many trails. There's a parking lot at the entrance of the park, at the side of Forbes State Park.

To reach this point, you'll gain about 600 feet of elevation in a little less than a miles, making it a challenging hike. The last section includes some rocky points, so sturdy shoes are recommended. However, the views of the Hawk Mountain area are worth the extra effort.

Culp's Hill has two rounded summits, close to Gettysburg centre. The higher is 630 ft (190 m) above sea level, the road to the top makes a great road climb. The hill played an important strategic point in the battle of Gettysburg (1863). It was a critical part of the Union army defensive line.
