Prompton State Park

Prompton State Park is a 2,000-acre state park in beautiful Wayne County, just 6 miles from Honesdale. The 290-acre Prompton Lake spans nearly the entire park. The park provides boat launching and picnicking facilities.

The lake has one boat launch on the west shore, accessed from PA 170. The 18-hole disc golf course is located to the right of the parking lot at the PA 170 entrance.

From biking the world-class trails to hiking to the spectacular waterfalls that call this park home, it’s well worth the drive. 26 miles of hiking trails surround the lake.

As far as hiking and mountain biking go, Prompton is about as good as it gets. The narrow, north-to-south running park features close to 26 miles of trails. The mostly rocky and rooted terrain offers incredible mountain biking conditions. And nearly every trail features small streams, sweeping overlooks of the lake or mountains and the occasional waterfall.The East Shore Trail, at a total length of 4.5 miles, is Prompton’s longest trail. It runs the length of the lake on the eastern shore from the park’s north entrance on Beech Grove Road to the top of the dam at the southern point. Here, you can pick up the Western Shore Trail and, adding another 3.5 miles, complete the loop of the entire lake. The Eastern Shore Trail also serves as a primary connector to many of the park’s other trails.

All of Prompton State Park’s hiking trails are open to mountain biking.

The park is open every day of the year, from sunrise to sunset. Day use areas close at dusk. Prompton State Park is ADA accessible. If you need accommodation to participate in park activities due to a disability, please contact the park before your visit.
