Activities:
Highlands Haven is centrally located in the Laurel Highlands area which boasts a ton of outdoor and indoor activities. The house is located in the perfect location on the way from Pittsburgh to Seven Springs Mountain Resort just minutes from the ski slopes. Seven springs is a full season resort with plenty of activities for every season. In the winter, Seven Springs is a ski resort with world class snow making in case winter doesn’t cooperate. Seven Springs has several restaurants, several bars, an indoor pool, sporting clays, axe throwing, miniature golf, arcade, snowmobiling and bowling to keep you busy if ski conditions aren’t good for a day! There are 2 more small ski resorts located 20 minutes away. Hidden Valley Ski Resort and Laurel Mountain Ski Resort are smaller resorts but are perfect for beginners and teaching the little ones! The Laurel Highlands offers a ton of activities for the spring, summer and fall as well. Spring and summer activities include hiking, biking, rafting, fishing, sightseeing, golf, wineries, caverns, parks, idle wild amusement park, sporting clays, zip lines, the alpine slide, pools and atv trails. Let’s start with hiking. Popular hiking spots include the Laurel Highlands Trail, Ohiopyle State Park and Bear Run Trails. There are a ton of other trails but those are some to to check out. My favorite are the hikes are Ohiopyle! If biking is your thing, then you are at the right place. There are plenty of downhill, single track and mellow trails in the area. Seven Springs resort has a good downhill course and you can rent bikes at the resort if needed. There are also a ton of single track trails around the resort if that’s your style of biking. If you want something more mellow then head to Ohiopyle and ride the scenic more friendly trails or just down the hill along Indian Creek. Next up is whitewater rafting! Ohiopyle State Park offers 3 rivers to raft. The upper youghiougheny is advanced, the lower youghiogheny is intermediate and the middle youghiogheny is beginner so there is something for every group. If fishing is your thing then head to one of the the many creeks and rivers to to some trout fishing. If the weather is not cooperating on your getaway then maybe take a day off the outdoor activities. There are several wineries in the area to check out that offer tastings, I would recommend Stone Villa and Greendance wineries. Both wineries are 20 minutes from the house and you can easily spend a hour or 2 hanging out tasting wine and relaxing. A good family activity to do especially if it’s raining is to check out laurel caverns. Another local attraction perfect for the family is Idlewild Amusement Park which has some fun rollercoasters and is perfect for the little one. Idlewild is 30 minutes away in Ligonier which is worth stopping to check out if you go to Idlewild. Another activity which I enjoy in Laurel Highlands is sporting clays. Seven springs has an awesome course and if you want to venture out a bit, Nemacolin Resort has a good course as well. Make sure to make a reservation. Nemacolin is a 38 minutes from the house and is worth checking out if you want to see Pennsylvania’s only 5 star resort. They have a small casino which is entertaining, several beautiful golf courses and a zoo on the property. There is another small zoo called living treasures 5 minutes from the house too which is a fun family activity. The other activities worth mentioning are zip lining, the pool and the alpine slide at Seven Springs Resort. This is a good summary of the activities in the area but I have extensive knowledge of the area and I can answer any questions to help you plan out your mountain vacation!
