Overview
Description
The 1,125-acre Caledonia State Park is in Adams and Franklin counties, midway between Chambersburg and Gettysburg along the Lincoln Highway, US 30. The park is nestled within South Mountain, the northern terminus of the well-known Blue Ridge Mountain of Maryland and Virginia. Within South Mountain there are four state parks and 84,000 acres of state forest land waiting to be explored and enjoyed. The soils on either side of South Mountain are ideal for fruit production, proven by the abundance of orchards in the surrounding area. The park has a challenging 18-hole golf course, located near the Totem Pole Playhouse, a summer stock theater. A swimming pool with a water slide add to the fun at this location. Appalachian Trail hikers find this a welcome oasis during the summer season. History buffs can learn about Civil War legislator, and abolitionist, Thaddeus Stevens, who was a co-owner of the Caledonia Ironworks, before traveling to Gettysburg to visit the National Battlefield Park.
