Summer is right around the corner and there is no better way to soak up the sun than by enjoying a picnic!

Whether you're gathering with family, planning a romantic outing, or simply looking to unwind with a good book and a scenic view, the perfect picnic spot makes all the difference. In Pennsylvania, one spot stands out as the ultimate picnic destination. Be it a sprawling green lawn, an abundance of shade trees, or breathtaking views, something about this spot makes it ideal for spreading out a blanket and relaxing with some delicious snacks by your side. Whether you're planning a laid-back afternoon or a full day of adventure, this spot has everything you need for a perfect summer escape.

While there are a handful of idyllic picnic locations scattered throughout Pennsylvania, only one is considered the best!

According to a list compiled by LoveFood, the best picnic spot in Pennsylvania is Bushkill Falls in the Pocono Mountains.

Here's what LoveFood had to say about the absolute best picnic spot in the state:

"The vast Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area spans two states – sprawling into New Jersey – and has more than a dozen designated picnic areas among the trees and on the banks of the Delaware River. Perhaps the spot with the most stunning views, though, is Pennsylvania’s Bushkill Falls in the Pocono Mountains. A wooden boardwalk links up the series of eight cascades, so you can earn your lunch with a gentle hike."
