Before becoming a state park, the area was used by the U.S. Army for artillery training during World War I and World War II.
The park spans over 5,440 acres, offering a vast expanse for outdoor activities and exploration.
The 170-acre Tobyhanna Lake was created by damming Tobyhanna Creek, providing a serene setting for fishing and boating.
The park is home to a variety of wildlife, including white-tailed deer, black bears, and over 150 species of birds.
The park is part of the larger Delaware State Forest, which works to preserve Pennsylvania's natural landscapes and ecosystems.
During winter, the park offers opportunities for snowmobiling, ice fishing, and cross-country skiing.
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the area was heavily logged, which significantly shaped its current landscape.
