Beautiful very scenic, I walk around here with my little Pug all the time and she loves it! Lots of uphill.

We originally came to Nay Aug Park because we wanted to visit the Everhart Museum, and we did, but we 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.

Best park ever!! It has a cafe & lots of trails and picnic tables and even a museum! You can spend the entire day at Nay Aug Park and it's a great place for a date.

Beautiful park for hiking biking or relaxing. Beautiful views has a treehouse overlooking the treetops. Waterfalls throughout the gorge. Super cool place

This isnone of the most relaxing park with a waterfall. Note, it can be dangerous, the rocks to walk in are slippery, sandals are not the best option to do this walk. We found the waterfall doing a hike thru the back of the park. I still didn't figure out the front official entrance. There is no lifeguard on duty, swim at your own risk. Weekdays are more empty, Weekends there are more visitors. People do jump off to the big waterfall and it will be hard to get back up as the rocks are sooo slippery. The water feels so clean, natural, and relaxing. Oh the mosquito bites are hurtful, shower yourself with bug repellent to void being the best meal of the day to the mosquitoes as I was.

I spent two days in Scranton and loved this town and its charm. Most well known as the city where The Office takes place, Nay Aug Park was my favorite attraction in Scranton and my favorite park I visited on my entire New York/Pennsylvania road trip. It's a breathtaking park. There are a bunch of trails and areas to check out but if you're looking for the greatest hits, I'd check out a few in particular. The treehouse is a highlight as it provides a great few of the gorge and the park in general from high up. Another highlights it the bridge. Regardless of which trail you choose, spend some time close to the gorge and hear the beauty of the water and nature at its finest. This is a must-visit while in Scranton!

I highly recommend coming here and checking this park out. My husband and I only decided to do the tree house aspect of it , but there was tons of other parts of the park we wanted to check out. It was a bit too hot outside to walk around and do anything. We will have to come back again and do the trail to go down and see the waterfall. I would highly recommend coming here and checking this spot out.

Very nice park located within Scranton city limits - packed with trails, treehouse, bridge, museum, ...even a waterfall! Our main focus was hiking down to the falls & visiting the Everhart Museum. Trails were nice - much easier than our trip to Ricketts Glen 2 days earlier. ;) We were here at just about the peak of the Fall leaf color-change season, so the park was very photogenic. Great mashup of standard metro park & wooded trails - highly recommended!

One of the bright spots in an otherwise decaying town. Easy trails, a beautiful waterfall, and treehouse, among other things makes this a great place for adults and children. Too bad the pool is closed due to COVID. While here and if it's open, visit the Everheart Museum. Love that place! Free and plentiful parking makes this an easy visit and nice place to get lost in nature for a few hours. Stop by if you're ever in town.

Beautiful park with waterfall. It's a nice place to walk around. Great to enjoy a nice warm sunny day. The walking trail can be somewhat icy during the winter but it's not so bad. Definitely worth visiting if you are nearby.

Nay Aug Park is the largest park in Scranton. These days it's a nice local beauty spot, with trails highlighting the lovely Nay Aug Gorge. But it also has a fascinating history some guests may enjoy looking into. (The park has been the site of an amusement park and a zoo in days gone by.) I visited Nay Aug Park with my family this previous spring, and we really enjoyed ourselves. The main trails weren't excessively difficult to walk along. The more vertical foot paths weren't quite as smooth, but they weren't that strenuous to navigate, either. We liked being able to take in the views of the park from both a lower viewing platform and an elevated footbridge. Plus, the weather was perfect that day! It offered a great backdrop to the relaxing sounds of the wind and the water. It's worth noting, the park also houses picnic areas and a couple swimming pools. My family was not interested in either during our visit, but which I'm sure other guests might be! With great views, fairly accessible trails, and family-friendly areas, Nay Aug Park is well worth your time if you're in the Scranton area. It's not a particularly giant park by any means, but it's a lovely spot of green that brightens up the city. Happy trekking, park goers!

As anyone who has ever visited downtown Scranton can attest, that part of the city is pretty much an armpit that stinks like hell. Shitty roads, the disappointment that is Steamtown, the mall which at this point borders on an embarrassment plus so much more. It's like the slogan of the town should be "Scranton, why bother?" With that said, Nay Aug Park is an amazing natural gem that is still the best thing in the area. The Nay Aug Gorge is easily the most well known and visited part of the park. The gorge has been cut over time by Roaring Brook and offers some really great views of that area of the park while hiking the trails. The most easily accessible spot to see the gorge is from the the Paul Kanjorski Bridge. The bridge is a short walk from the main parking lots and provides an excellent overview of Roaring Brook and the gorge. The other way to get a nice overview is to visit the David Wenzel Tree House. Not as good of a view as the bridge due to being farther away from the water and from the heavy tree coverage but none the less it's still a unique experience. Nay Aug as mentioned prior has some hiking trails but I use that term loosely because nothing is terribly difficult. The main trail is the Davis Trail which is about a two mile loop. The other trail worth hitting is the overlook trail which is a short stub off of Davis which takes you down close to the main set of waterfalls. Nay Aug also has the Everhart Museum which is the largest public museum in NE PA. I've never been but I've only read good things about it. There's a also a decent size wooden kids playground, two Olympic sized swimming pools which are open seasonally for both residents and non-residents at different prices for each group, a large Christmas light display and a good amount of parking/space for special events. Speaking of special events, what a treat it was to inadvertently show up during the Pennsylvania Cannabis Festival. All I can say about that is, Oh Boy! If you're in the area Nay Aug area, the park is worth a stop Fo Sho!.
