Overview

Bear Rock Junction is a multi-activity family destination featuring an outdoor go-kart track with banked turns, two 18‑hole mini‑golf courses, a coal-fired scenic train, and food service. The site sits off PA‑309 and is popular with families, groups, and birthday parties.

Operations are seasonal and weather-dependent; the park advertises spring–fall openings, weekend train runs, and large pavilions for group rentals. Check the official site or call ahead for current hours and event availability.

What to Expect

Short on-track thrills and easy family extras make for a half‑day outing.

Look out for:

  • Banked-turn outdoor kart track; karts reach up to about 20 MPH.
  • Driver minimum height to operate a single kart is 56"; riders must be at least 36" and ride with a licensed driver.
  • Two 18‑hole mini‑golf courses (36 holes total), a coal-fired scenic train, kiddie rides, paintball/shooting gallery, and an on-site dairy bar/grill.
  • Party pavilions that seat roughly 75–80 for birthday or group events.

Best way to experience it: arrive with closed-toe shoes and hair tied back, plan for a mix of karting and mini‑golf, and allow time for the train if it’s running that day. Check the Bear Rock Junction website or call before visiting since hours and attractions run seasonally and are weather-dependent.

Things to Note

  • Seasonal, weather-dependent hours—confirm before you go.
  • Driver minimum height 56"; rider minimum height 36" (riders must be with a licensed driver).
  • Safety guidance: closed-toe shoes, avoid loose clothing/scarves, tie long hair back.
  • Posted prices for go-karts are $12.95 (driver) and $4.50 (rider); verify current rates with the park.
