Overview
Seven Tubs Recreation Area in Pinchot State Forest near Wilkes-Barre is named for its series of glacial potholes, smooth water-carved basins formed in the last Ice Age. A well-maintained loop trail with footbridges and stone steps passes waterfalls, mossy rocks, and the tubs, and interpretive signs explain the glacial history. It suits most skill levels.
