Fairy Stone State Park
After the iron industry moved away from the area, residents of Fayerdale went from mining to 'shining. Join a ranger to learn about the history of moonshining and how the residents of Fayerdale used Stuart's Knob to provide for their families. This 1.5-mile trail does have some slippery slopes, so please wear proper footwear and clothing you don't mind getting dirty.
