Steeped in natural and historical features, the 696-acre Pine Grove Furnace State Park is at the northern tip of the Blue Ridge Mountains, in an area known as South Mountain and is surrounded by Michaux State Forest. Visitors enjoy many recreational opportunities, including:
Two mountain lakes (Laurel Lake and Fuller Lake)
Hiking the Appalachian Trail
Visiting the Appalachian Trail Museum
Imagining when the park was a charcoal-fired iron furnace community
Young women will camp in the Organized Group Tenting campground. The rustic sites are in a wooded area surrounding an open playfield.
NOTE: Cell phone coverage is spotty at best and non-existent in most areas of the park and surrounding state forest. Please plan accordingly and do not rely on cell phone usage.
WARNING: The spotted lanternfly has invaded the area. To help stop the spread of these invasive pests inspect your vehicle, tent, gear, etc. before you leave the park and destroy any lanternflies you find.
