Erie Bluffs State Park

Erie Bluffs State Park extends across 587 acres of natural land featuring 90-foot cliffs along Lake Erie and dense oak forests.

The Western Pennsylvania Conservancy acquired this land from Reliant Energy in 2004, establishing Pennsylvania's 117th state park to protect undeveloped shoreline.

Environmental education programs throughout the year connect visitors with the natural heritage through guided walks and educational activities about local ecosystems.

The park remains open from sunrise to sunset daily, with two developed areas: the Elk Creek Access point and the Main Entrance parking facility.

Within the park boundaries, scientists identified 80 bird species and 19 mammal species without any invasive animals, indicating an intact natural ecosystem.
