Bendigo State Park, State park in Jones Township, Pennsylvania, US
The park encompasses 100 acres within a valley along the East Branch Clarion River, featuring northern hardwoods including beech, birch, cherry, and maple trees.
Established in 1959, the park bears the name of William Thompson Bendigo, an Irish tavern keeper and prizefighter who settled in northwestern Pennsylvania.
The park carries forward the legacy of 1920s community development, when Johnsonburg borough first developed the land for public recreation.
The swimming pool operates daily from 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM between Memorial Day and Labor Day weekends, with over 150 picnic tables available throughout the grounds.
Twenty acres of the park contain developed facilities while eighty acres remain as undeveloped woodland, preserving the natural state of the environment.
