    We originally came to Nay Aug Park because we wanted to visit the Everhart Museum, and we did, but…read morewe had no idea that this park had so much to explore! We ended up walking our dog over to the tree house overlook and the views of the gorge and the water below were genuinely breathtaking. Along the way, we made time to check out Brooks Coal Mine which is an interesting piece of history. It's a small, shallow mind that was built more than 100 years ago and I love that there is a memorial there to all the coal miners who have lost their lives working in the mine. We walked through shaded paths and green spaces taking in the scenery and just really enjoying the vibes here. There were lots of trees and greenspace with quiet benches and so many things to look at. We actually got really excited when we spotted a bug that we had never seen before. I added a photo below and maybe I sound like a crazy person but I'm not from this area. I learned afterwards that it was a spotted lantern fly. Apparently that's not a great thing for the ecosystem and they're kind of a n invasive pest, but you learn something new everyday right? I honestly wish we had planned for more time at the park itself, but we did stay for about an hour and really enjoyed our walk and the fact that our dog was having such a lovely time here. I still feel like there was more for us to see. Parking was easy and entry was free. If you are in the area and just want to stretch your legs or take in the beautiful nature, this is definitely a place to check out.

    I grew up in the Scranton area, but somehow never went hiking at Nay Aug until last year when my…read morewife and I were back in the area visiting family. The trails are quite nice and it's always nice to walk to some waterfalls, particularly when it's hot out. There's a good amount of trails and there's plenty of parking all around the park. It's definitely one of the nicest things to do in Scranton and I'd definitely recommend it if you're in the area!

    This place is great when its not too crowded, especially with teenagers. My son has a great time,…read moreunless the play area is full of teenagers and Adults! Stay away over xmas break. Other than that, loads for the kiddos to do, plenty of places for the parents to sit and relax if you choose to.

    We paid basically $12 for my wife, daughter, and me to go inside, but my daughter only played with…read morethe slides and other equipment. One of you can leave and come back but if you all leave you cannot come back. Not bad really if you get about two hours or more play time out of it. There is a food area that sells snack type food if you didn't bring your own. Mandatory to take shoes off but not sure why if you do not engage with the equipment. I have a degenerative condition in my right foot so next time I'm not taking my shoes off. Also, you are basically forced into the bathroom without shoes on, which I feel is extremely unsanitary. I'd leave and come back if I had to because you'll never catch me in a public bathroom with just my socks on. Staff up front was alright, kind of nice, but brisk and to the point. Inside the staff basically ignore you and don't interact with any out of line kids. Parents come to let the kids blow off steam and kind of forget to keep them following any rules, so you need to pay attention to slightly younger kids to keep them from getting hurt. Overall not bad but not all that amazing either. Staff need to be more involved and the no shoe policy is a fail if you don't use the equipment.
