Milton State Park

Milton State Park is a recreational area on an island between Milton and West Milton in Pennsylvania. The park sits between the banks of the West Branch Susquehanna River and contains sports fields, picnic facilities, and walking paths throughout its grounds.

The park was established in 1966 by the state's conservation department as a recreational destination along the river. This development reflected wider efforts to create public outdoor spaces for communities in central Pennsylvania.

The park serves local communities with soccer fields, picnic areas, and nature trails that connect residents to outdoor recreation traditions of central Pennsylvania.

Visitors can drive to the island via PA 642 from PA 147 or US 15 in West Milton, with parking areas in the northern section. The southern part is best explored on foot through its forest trails, so plan for walking time if you venture that way.

The northern section contains recreational facilities while the southern part remains forested, creating two distinct experiences within a single river island.
