Parasailing on Lake Wallenpaupack

So you've gone hiking around the lake, you've fished the shorelines, you've seen the fireworks and visited the islands. You've done a lot on Lake Wallenpaupack and you've seen every cove. But have you seen the lake from 300 feet in the air?

Parasailing is a popular shore activity, but you don't have to drive to the ocean to have an exhilarating ride above a boat. Instead of parasailing at the shore, where there's only water on one side and city on the other, why not take a parasailing ride above beautiful Lake Wallenpaupack?! Take in the serene country side, the beautiful lake homes, and the peace of Pennsylvania's 3rd largest lake from the sky. Parasailing is safe, easy, and something you won't soon forget!
