From Ski Hill to Four-Season Park

Denton Hill opened as a state-run ski area in 1951. The state operated it until 1979, private operators ran it until skiing ended in 2014, and in 2023 Pennsylvania DCNR partnered with local company Denton Go to turn it into a four-season destination. The work is ongoing, with upgraded trails, cabins, campsites and a lodge that hosts weddings and events.
