A Checklist of High-Energy Things to Do in the Poconos

One of the best things about staying at our resort in the Poconos is the variety of activities available both on-site and in the surrounding area. For families with older children, there are several thrilling activities to enjoy that’ll take your summer vacation to the next level.

• Test your aim with Archery Tag. This fun game is open to guests ages 11 and up. Use foam arrows to try and tag your opponents in this battle that’s part dodgeball part Hunger Games.
• See if your team can come out on top playing X-Treme Paintball. Whether playing Speed Ball or Capture the Flag, you’re sure to have a fun time. Be prepared to get messy!
• Feel the rush of whitewater rafting. Landers River Trips has five launch and land locations, and rafting trips can last up to five hours. Another great option is Reber River Trips.
• Go for a ride along the Lackawaxen River with the Pennsylvania Rail Bike. The route spans 10 and 20 miles through Hawley, and the electric pedal-assist railbikes make this a great activity for all ages.
• Test your need for speed on our go-cart track. We offer two raceways, one specifically for young drivers. Another great option for racing go-carts is Costa’s Family Fun Park, which also offers laser tag, mini golf, and water slides.
