Seven Tubs Recreation Area

Seven Tubs Recreation Area is a publicly accessible recreation area located in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, and owned by the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources. Continuously flowing glacial meltwater gouged a line of smooth tubs in gritty sandstone over 12,000 years ago. The tubs are potholes formed by the flowing water. The site is part of a 537-acre recreation area in the Pennsylvania mountains about 4 miles south of downtown Wilkes-Barre. The site is popular among hikers for its easy accessibility and beginner-level hiking environment.
