Saint Peters Village Hiking Trails - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

This is a quante village with artist, craftsmen, restaurants, old time arcade, and a river to rock climb and jump.

I came here to relax and escape the hustle and bustle of urban life for a bit. Unfortunately this was not the place to do it. I was appalled by how much graffiti there was. It really ruins the tranquil experience to see garishly painted scribbles everywhere. This isn’t exactly Bansky quality either, by the way. It’s mostly the ugly, poorly done (and occasionally vulgar/derogatory) work of teenage boys trying to be edgy. It’s NOT just on the rocks, by the way, but on the trees too, which is really disgusting. If I knew it was going to be full of trash and graffiti, I would have just stayed in Philly. I’m giving it 2 stars because it IS pretty in terms of the natural beauty, and the trails are super easy, but I wouldn’t go back. There are plenty of other parks in the area that are actually well maintained.

I'm a very big fan of this place. Splendid natural setting with very unique rock formations and a pleasant swimming hole. Unique setting with the town near the creek. Hidden gem? One of the premier nature spots in SE PA imo. Check it out! Please don't make a mess and be respectful of families.

LOVE this place! Recommend a thousand times. PERFECT for family and/or friends gatherings. Definitely a must see/go!

Quite the place. Huge boulders in the river. Lots of people on the rocks and in the water. But it's a large area so doesn't feel crowded. Trails on the mountain are long and quiet. The downside is all the graffiti on the rocks. Such a waste of beauty. But coloring books and draw there not on God's creation.

Racist comment on a stone in the front. Been present for more than a month smh. Do better. Never coming back again used to do this trail a lot too with my boy Zack.

Nice place for hiking. Some strange locals who can leave trash but otherwise great

Amazing place to just get away and relax and be active if you want to hike on the trails... or just sit and listen to the water. Super peaceful and the kids love climbing the rocks!

Beautiful Village, hippie style, with friendly local people. The hike is beautiful with a rocky trail and a peaceful stream. I absolutely loved the energy of this place!

My family attempted to visit one of St. Peters hiking trails and didn't get far before turning around. Terribly kept area with awful graffiti covering every rock and tree. There was trash everywhere, rusty sheets of metal strewn about along the trails, no railing across a bridge (danger to children) and piles upon piles of Dog feces along the trail because people have absolutely Zero regard for others or nature. This place was trash. Very disappointing since my family drove an hour to get there with very high hopes.

One of my Favorite Places. Such a lovely Little Villiage. Just went to visit the New Cidery, lots of fun. A must is to stop by the bakery for some goodies. Beautiful Place to just wander around the shops and take in the beauty of nature.

Saint Peter was nowhere to be seen, I did find my arch nemesis Poison Ivy, however. Got some Saturday afternoon fitness training in the Hopewell woods. Tossed some boulders, moved a tree off of the hiking path, and even found some time to sunbathe on a boulder. The trails ain't no stroll through Wayne Manor’s gardens. A lot of rocks, so leave your bat-bike at home; good hiking boots are your best side-kick here. There are some huge boulders you can climb, much easier with a grapnel, of course. Great photo ops! I did not catch any in the act, but be on the lookout for Jokers who spray painted some of the rocks. Copious different routes you can go hiking. Multiple paths and off-path boulder formations. Beautiful streams! The water is as cold as Mr Freeze, so enter at your own risk. Whether you are looking for a leisurely stroll with Alfred for an adventurous training session with Robin, this is a good spot for both. Rock on, Gotham!

Perfect 👌 to enjoy with the family

Liked the trails in the rocks unfortunately hooligans have spraypainted over the rocks disrupting the serenity of it all but still enjoyable

Definitely recommend bringing your rc here had a blast with mine

This is a gem of a place, not far from the city you can really get away without taking half a day hike. Hanging out by the water is tranquil.

Great trails! Gets pretty busy in the warmer season. Good parking area.

Beautiful quiet town with a nice bakery and an antique arcade with awesome pinball machines! My kids loved it and only $.25 a machine

As she gets older, my dog is more resistant to hiking on trails. These trails are easy enough to get the grumpy girl out and about.

This "hiking" area is technically a section of Pennsylvania's State Game Land 43. During big game hunting seasons you need to wear at least 250 square inches of blaze orange and dogs are not allowed on game land during big game hunting seasons. There is a small placard on a tree near the entrance listing all regulations pertaining to the area.

Beautiful trails through wooded hillside and creek. The Inn is a wonderful place to eat. Huge menu. Great atmosphere.

Quaint little town with an easy trail head. access to the Horseshoe trail, french creek, preserve lands. Was a little worried for my safety concerning the hunting in Nov. also the Graffiti on St. Peter's trails was heartbreaking.

Was there for St Peter's Village Festival, like a craft show in the street of the village

Been going here for 50yrs. The arcade, backery, winery and jumping on the rocks..such a great get away.

Great rock climbing place, with a nice amount of water. A little busy most of the weekend. Some noise from the street, but still amazing fresh.

Nice Hiking Trails. Good Sized Parking Lot. Small Creek, Lots of Rocks and Boulders... Some More Challenging Than Others. Be Careful, Have FUN.

I've been going here since I was a little kid and though the town has changed a lot over the years it's still a cool little place to visit. The trails and rocks have always been fun but unfortunately it gets so crowded especially since Covid. We used to have cookouts deep in the woods and just hang out there all day into the evening but we also took all our trash with us which doesn't seem to be the norm anymore.

Awesome place to experience nature at it's finest. Trails are fabulous place to hike. My only concern would be the giant boulders along the creek. A lot of people congregate around them and jump from rock to rock. I don't know who owns the land but it is a liability nightmare. It is very dangerous to allow the general public to run around on these rocks. I certainly did it as a kid not worried about the potential risk of injury, but seeing it as an adult I am amazed it is still permitted. On the other hand this country is supposed to allow freedom. So perhaps if there were signs posted explaining the potential risk that would be sufficient.

One of my favorite hiking areas. Been coming for years and it's always a blast.

Its great to hike but the village isn't what it once was.

Great place for a trail, walk, swimming and relaxing. It has long trails, waterfalls, a natural pool and rocky terrain. Must visit!

Trails are nice, but poorly marked. Shame to see so much graffiti on the boulders too.

It was definitely nice to get out especially when it's not super hot out it wasn't as crowded as I've seen it in the past which was also a plus. Definitely a lot of walking around to do and just a nice little area beautiful alternative to an amusement park or water park

Fun little trail to a great swimming hole

Very nice trail and nice water to swim in!

Lots of trails, easy for any level of skill. There’s a little swimming hole area for the summer time. But warning it does get super crowded. Disappointed to see all the graffiti that has showed up and for the past couple years but that’s because of other tourist not the towns fault itself there’s also a hotel to eat at and a bakery, as well as a little arcade in town.

Great place to go and enjoy nature. Haven't been on the trails cause I just can't pull myself from the boulders and the stream.

Kids loved the swimming hole and playing on the rocks.

Great place. Lot of different trails and shoot offs that get to the water and other spots. Went there for a rc crawl event. Had a blast. I'm going to be going back

The shops and restaurant on the main road is pretty neat and you will always have fun there, but the real magic is the trails behind them. There are easy trails, harder trails, short trails, long trails, and just about every step along those trails there is something neat to see. You can also skip the trails and try jumping your own path through the giant rocks and boulders. There are questions down here that I can't really answer because every answer available applies. Easy, moderate, and hard trails. There are some that take you out and back, some that loop, some point to point, and depending on which one you take, you go anywhere from half and hour to as looong as you want. I am partial to the hoarse shoe trail. The entire trail is 134 miles, but I like to take it from st Pete to French creek and back (about 15 miles round trip)

Enjoy the trails and climbing through the huge rocks. It's fun to see the cool artwork on the rocks. Plenty of shade along the trails!! Also a nice creek to fish or stick your feet in and relax.

Beware half the road fell down the cliff. There is a one lane portion of the road with a stop sign at either end, and I couldn't see the other end. So it's not possible to see if there is a car coming from the other end. They should make the single lane one way and reroute the other direction some other way around with signs.

Attention all Adventure Seekers & Hikers of All Levels!! Check this spot out! There’s a water hole for cooling off and tons of trails to explore. Wear your sneakers because you’re navigating some tricky terrain. Totally worth the trip-anyone can manage this park!

The trail is mostly easy, but the boulders and several small rocky areas are definitely challenging. It connects to the Horseshoe trail if you want a longer hike. Otherwise, it can be done in small loops.

Went trout fishing with grandchildren, caught 5, gorgeous day in a beautiful area.

This place is a little Paradise 😍

So nice! Shops, restaurants, ciders, loved the antique store! Flower store. Everything fun! Check out Excursion ciders, Great!

Beautiful place to visit. Hiking and little shops to visit.

Great for hiking and the rocks are fun to jump across. I know its illegal and they highly discourage it but the graffiti on the rocks is one of the coolest parts.

Loving out doors and nature hiking trails

Quaint village, beautiful hiking Trails

Great time hiking with the family! Nature is beautiful 😍

I love how peaceful it is here! Clearly marked trails and paths. Great place to bring the family!

Nice very small village / town some nice shops. Will have to come here. The trail normal PA rockyness. The inclines are mild nothing too steep. Trail was covered with leaves. So it can be slippery in rainy or early morning dew covered. Then on the topside where the old railroads tracks were is flat. And a nice longgg walk. Bring a camera or use your phone for some great photos.

Beautiful scenery, rock formations, mini water falls and trails.

My kids love the rock hopping and I can stay on the flat trails too! There is a rail to trail, but it's not paved!

Very cool rocks/ water/ trails. Fun old school arcade and ice cream. Good times for family or so solo outdoor!

Beautiful area and great hiking trails, but I wish they had any kind of restrooms or trash cans for the public to use. I couldn't find any. Nice experience for dogs, too, (except no bins for dog poop).

My bf & I had so much fun!! We went on the trail for a bit and then jumped on rocks! It was amazing!

Not as nice as it used to be. Nor as quiet. Today it's expensive, trendy tourist trap

Great place to explore. Can climb on the rocks that line the paths and sit and take in the sounds of the running water. Paths through the woods are moderate but in some areas be prepared to navigate rocks to get to the other side. All and all a great place to get out in nature.

Great views fun trail and awesome rock hopping

Awesome place friendly people good atmosphere alot to do with kids and adults

Went on a really long hike. And then rock jumping. So it was fun as usual.

We stubbled across this accidentally and I’m glad we decided to check it out. We enjoyed playing in the stream and climbing the boulders. It’s something quite cool to see. Never seen anything like it before.

Great place to hike with the family

Awesome trails, neat rocks, beautiful creek.

Beautiful scenery, rocks are fun to play on, rope swing was a blast!

Beautiful place to climb the rocks, and it has a nice trial.

Great place to enjoy nature & chill. Fun for the whole family.

saint peters village is the cutest town around! it’s nestled into this beautiful area of pennsylvania that is like a hidden gem :) the saint peters village hiking trails is a big plus aswell. the trails are absolutely gorgeous

I will definitely go back with my younger kids

Still has a 25 cent per play arcade in town! Loved it since I was little

I love St. Pete's! Great for hiking and relaxing in the river. The graffiti art is great and cool to look at. Definitely visit mushroom rock! The little shops are cute and have a lil winery that does tastings and a nice place for lunch by the river. Unfortunately this hidden gem has had more people visiting and with that more trash. Please carry out whatever you carry in! Most times I visit I end up cleaning up people's trash they left behind. Bring a trash bag with you as there are no trash cans. If you bring your dogs, kindly take their poop with you otherwise you're contaminating the river! A little common sense goes a long way! Respect this place so future generations can enjoy this place too!

Fun place to hike, swim, and do a whole lot more, the trail ranges from .1 miles to 6 miles long, the nearest swimming area is pretty close to the parking lot and easy to get to, would not recommend bringing small children here as they might not be able to navigate the rough terrain

Great hike had great time in the hike of 3 miles long 1 way hike with woods, rock way and sand path. Great place to have hike around 3 hours

Fun rock climbing for the kids. Unfortunate that graffiti has ruined so many of the rocks, but a fun place in the shade nonetheless.

You can hop rocks in the creek bed walk trails, fish and grab some good food and drinks.

Strange yet intriguing and so beautiful. Beware where you step... very rocky.

This hiking trail is perfect for the weekend warrior, families with young kids, and novice hikers. The landscape is serene, highlighted by a small river flowing over large boulders. It's a great spot to take cute "out-doorsy" photos.

Have gone here for many years. Used to bring our children here when they were younger.Know we bring the grandchildren here. Great place to go for a walk and to spend the day outdoors.

This place is amazing!!! Don't go there because I want it all for myself 😂

Coolest place in area by far if your down to hike, swim, catch a tan or a fish. 420 friendly.

Beautiful place to walk on the rocks through the creek. The kids loved it though one fell in and we got some wet feet from slips. Bring extra foot wear.

Beautiful trails, boulders, and creek. My dog loves it too!

This place used to be really awesome and layed back. Good luck if you try and go out to it on a nice day... that's all I can say for it now. Hate when places become overpopulated like this one and why I stopped posting of any of the places that I go.

Beautiful area. Super friendly people in this little town, unfortunately there's a lot of graffiti on the rocks and in the hiking area. Other than that it is absolutely gorgeous

Went there for a Cars & Coffee event. Very beautiful and picturesque location. Well be going back to explore more of it again.

One of our favorite places as a family. Lots of fun to be in nature and trails for most skill levels or just jump around on the giant rocks.

Super beautiful, lots of walking space

Bring some chalk and make some art! beautiful little town.

I love St. Peters Village. I love the views, I love the village look. My dog loves jumping the rocks there more than I do, and she's only a little thing. The place is so big that you can find a new trail, and site everytime and still always find your way back to the parking lot. The summer time it's packed with swimmers, the winter time it's full of icicles and beautiful pictures

Went for some RC crawling. Always a good experience being going 30ish years

Lots of great hiking trails. Not a fan of the graffiti

Beautiful scenery, many different trails, always a fun time.

A childhood favoritetger never disappoints

Quaint and quiet little lovely town

Great place to go rock hopping and would be a nice swimming hole to find relief on a hot day. The natural rock slide is rather enjoyable.

Beautiful spot to take a walk. I heard this place was haunted I wonder if this is true? 😄

Beautiful place to hike, except for the derogatory tagging, though there are some nice ones
