Bake Oven Knob — Attraction in East Penn Township

Amazing hike, we parked at the trailhead off 309 N and hiked the Appalachian up through Knife's Edge, P's Peak, and Bear Rocks. Definitely not for the faint hearted. A lot of climbing over boulders, and inclines!! Knife's Edge is awesome and is well marked just be sure to stay close to the blazes, maintain three points of contact on the steep bits and take some pictures on the flat rocks! The views on each side were incredible. After passing Bear Rocks (which my younger brother and I climbed for some more awesome views) the trail mostly evens out before arriving at the Bake Oven Knob parking lot.

I wish I still had pictures this is one of my all time favorite lookouts. I went on a crappy gloomy day expecting to be disappointed with a sunrise that wouldn't be the best. But considering the easy hike to get there and the amazing view I saw I gotta say nmwhen you go there you won't be disappointed. I remember for rolling by me and it felt eye to eye with me and was one of the greatest sunrises I have seen to this day. It clears to the most beautiful view I'll never forget. Very surreal and incredibly Serene. You'll love...
