Popular Pennsylvania state park attraction temporarily reopening
(WHTM) – A popular Pennsylvania state park attraction is temporarily reopening amid a rehabilitation project.
The Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources announced Thursday that the Skywalk at Kinzua Bridge State Park in McKean County will temporarily reopen for visitors hoping to catch the annual foliage.
The Skywalk and Kinzua Creek Trail have been closed for ongoing viaduct rehabilitation.
The Skywalk and trail are scheduled to reopen on August 8 and remain available to the public through October 31, 2025. After that, both areas will close for the resumption of structural work.
A temporary reopening is also being planned for the Fall of 2026.

“Fall in the Pennsylvania Wilds is simply magical, and we’re thrilled to welcome visitors back to one of the most unforgettable viewpoints in the state,” said State Parks Director John Hallas. “We also want to remind those looking to visit the region that nearby Bendigo State Park, Elk State Park, and Elk State Forest lands are great places to experience the natural beauty of the Pennsylvania Wilds and can be combined with a visit to the Kinzua Bridge visitor center as work to rehabilitate the Skywalk continues. We thank the public for its cooperation during the scheduled work.”
The park’s visitor center and gift shop remain open year-round.
