PA’s just full of surprises. If you’ve ever explored any of its state parts, you can attest to that, right? Ricketts Glen State Park, for example, boasts a stunning 22 waterfalls. Leonard Harrison State Park promises sweeping views of Pine Creek Gorge. And this Pennsylvania park beckons visitors with its singing rocks.

Pack everything you need for a day at the park - sturdy hiking boots or shoes; fresh water; a camera, and a hammer.

Yep, you read right. You’ll probably want to bring a hammer for your visit to the boulder field at Ringing Rocks Park in Upper Black Eddy.

Hit it with your hammer. Do you hear the rock ringing like a bell? You’ll have plenty of rocks to hit, too, in the seven-acre field, which is approximately 10 feet deep.

FourSquare/Dave B. Don’t be discouraged if the first rocks you hit don’t ring. Previous visitors to the park attest that some rocks ring while others don’t.

Why the rocks ring like a bell isn’t really known. However, some scientists assert that although all of the rocks in the field do ring, not all of them ring loud enough for us to hear.

Trip Advisor/relayer Tempted to take one of the rocks from the field? Don’t. They won’t ring without the other rocks, even if you do take one.

You’re in for another surprise, too. Ringing Rocks Park lays claim to the tallest waterfall - at 30 feet tall - in Bucks County.
