The months of September and October bring forth a spectacular burst of color to the area! The Poconos are unique in the fact that over 60 different varieties of trees are found here, with Mother Nature giving each species a hue different from every other. The result is a rainbow of color from forest bed to treetop, ranging from the deepest golds to the brightest reds.
A special beauty comes to life in the mountains as the first snowfall blankets the area. Although the Poconos first became popular as a summer resort, the area is now known through the Eastern United States as a winter sport center. Fifteen major ski areas offer 136 slopes and trails to all levels of skiers. Most important is the fact that the Pocono ski areas provide 100% snowmaking of their slopes, guaranteeing good skiing conditions from December until March. In additions to excellent skiing, visitors can also enjoy snowmobiling, ice skating, sledding, tobogganing, ice fishing and cross-country skiing throughout the winter months.
The earliest attraction of the area was the famed Delaware Water Gap, a deep gorge between two mountains created by the gradual erosion of the Delaware River. The Delaware Water Gap is approximately 100 miles from New York City and Philadelphia. As the years passed, vacationers found that the scenic wonder of the Delaware Water Gap was just a gateway to 2,400 square miles of mountain splendor known as the Poconos.
Major highways and airports make the area accessible to many for just a day of skiing or golf, or for just a two-week vacation.
