Hostel Details

83% Customer Rating
Located in beautiful Pine Grove Furnace State Park, Hostelling International - Ironmaster's Mansion was built in 1829 as the home of the ironmaster of the Pine Grove Furnace Ironworks. The ironworks manufactured cannonballs during the Revolutionary War, and the hostel was a stop on the Underground Railroad for sheltering runaway slaves. The hostel has a hot tub and is on the Appalachian Trail. Pine Grove Furnace State Park is crisscrossed by bike trails for both mountain bikes and 10-speeds and has lakes and streams for fishing and swimming. In the winter, great cross-country skiing starts right at the hostel's front porch. Alpine skiing is also nearby. Historic Gettysburg and its battlefield are close by.
