Climate
Like most cities in the northeast, Tannersville experiences all four seasons. Summers are warm with temperatures that can reach into the mid-60s. January tends to be the coldest month and sees temperatures that fall into the teens each year. Snowfall is measurable in the winter and makes Tannersville an inviting place for skiers and other winter sports-lovers. No matter when you visit, it’s a good idea to pack layers for a trip to this part of Pennsylvania.
Things to do
Plan your days out ahead of time because you won’t want to miss out on all this area has to offer. Explore the outdoors by spending a scenic day at the nearby Delaware Water Gap or Big Pocono State Park. With 1,300 acres of horseback riding, picnicking, and trails, you can still be back at any of the Tannersville cabin rentals before dark. Tannersville is also close to the Appalachian Trail and serves as a nearby access point for hikers.
Less than ten miles from the borough of Stroudsburg, the Tannersville area is alive with museums, tours, and historical destinations. During the summer, visit the historical working farm of Quiet Valley dedicated to the preservation and education of rural farm life. Take a tour at Barley Creek Brewing Company, the original brewpub in the Pocono Mountains, or see one man’s passion for toys showcased at the Toy & Nascar Museum.
For thrilling rides and adventure, you can’t beat Dorney Park and Wildwater Kingdom. It’s more than just roller coasters and water slides. It’s a source of rich, memory-making opportunities with attractions like the Dinosaurs Alive park, Planet Snoopy, and live entertainment.
And of course, if you’re in Tannersville, you can’t miss the Camelback area. Some Tannersville vacation rentals are right on Camelback Mountain and all are not far from this hub of skiing, snowboarding, and other slopeside activities during the winter. It’s one of the top ski resorts in Pennsylvania and offers learning programs for adults as well as children. Other winter activities abound, from tubing and the state’s only Mountain Coaster to a unique Graffiti Terrain Park. During the warmer months, the Camelback area boasts awesome zip-line adventures and family fun at Camelbeach Mountain Waterpark.

Events
A popular destination for tourists all year long, there are many family-friendly events during every season.
