Ravensburg State Park

Ravensburg State Park is a cozy 78 acre park located in a valley on the side of Nippenose Mountain.  The park is known for its talus covered slopes, interesting rock formations, and mountain laurel.  The spring-fed Rauchtown Run meanders through the park under a hardwood forest blanket and can be fished for brook trout and brown trout.   Camping at Ravenburg is tent only and offers flush toilets and modern showers.  We visited Ravensburg when we stayed at Raymond B Winter as it is about a 30 minute drive from the park.
