Description
For this one hour ranger guided van tour, participants will board the van at the Visitor Center, travel to the North and South abutments of the South Fork Dam, as well as a stop at the Club House building. Visitors will learn the history of the dam, interesting facts about the South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club and its members, and the events of Friday, May 31, 1889.
Van tours are Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays at 2:30 p.m. starting on June 3, 2024. In October the van tour is offered on Saturdays and Sundays.
This tour is free and reservations are encouraged but not required. The tour is staff dependent. Please call the Visitor Center at 814-886-6171 to see if the tour is offered on the day of your visit!
Please note!
Accommodations for children under the age of eight cannot be made due to Pennsylvania law. The child safety law states that children eight years of age and under must be in an appropriate booster seat. Please be advised that because we cannot ensure that car seats are properly and safely installed on the vans and/or the bus, we cannot accommodate them on van tours. If a child arrived at the park in a car seat, they must always be in a car seat, while in a motorized vehicle. No allowances will be made for "holding" children while on a van tour. Thank you for your understanding!
