Worlds End State Park - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The park is located on Pennsylvania Route 154 in the narrow, serpentine valley of the Loyalsock Creek. |
 | | The history of the park goes back to 1929, when the Pennsylvania Department of Forests and Waters, a precursor to the modern Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, began purchasing land devastated by logging and wild fire to create a state forest. |
 | | In 1933, four Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) camps were built in Sullivan County; Camp S-95 in Laporte built many of the park facilities, such as the swimming area and dam, the cabins, hiking trails and roads. |
