A Checklist of Free Things to Do in the Poconos

Going on the vacation of a lifetime can be expensive. Between getting there, whether via car or airplane, dining out, and finding things to do, the cost can add up. However, a great way to save without sacrificing fun is by staying at an all-inclusive resort like Woodloch. This gives you access to countless activities. Staying at our resort also means you’re close to numerous other free things to do in the Poconos.

What to Do at Our Resort in the Poconos

Part of our all-inclusive packages includes access to over 30 daily activities. While some of these things require an additional fee, many are included in your stay. This includes activities like:

• Saying hello to the animals at our petting zoo
• Seeing if you can solve the puzzles and find all the items in our scavenger hunt
• Riding around Lake Teedyuskung on a rowboat or paddle boat
• Taking part in our athletic contests like beach volleyball and horseshoes
• Racing around our go-kart track

The possibilities are endless. The best way to see what free things to do are available during your stay is by looking at our tentative schedules.

Other Things to Do in the Poconos

While you’ll never run out of things to do at Woodloch that are included in our stay, there are also plenty of free or inexpensive things to do throughout the Poconos.

• Spend time exploring the Upper Delaware Scenic & Recreational River. Unlike other national parks, this site does not require an entrance pass. Give yourself plenty of time to explore the Zane Grey Museum or check out the Roebling Bridge.
• See what you can find at a local farmers market. The best thing about visiting markets like the Wayne County Farmers’ Market or Hawley Farmers’ Market is you can control how much you spend.
• Lace up your hiking boots and explore the Hawley Trail. This 5.5-mile trail starts at the D&H Canal Park and works its way toward Lake Wallenpaupack. Signs along the way teach you about the area’s history and ecology.
