Tunkhannock Township

Among the communities of Pennsylvania, Tunkhannock Township stands out for Pocono Raceway, a major motorsport venue set amid the wooded Pocono Mountains. The township lies in Monroe County, where forests, small lakes and low ridges shape the upland terrain. Nearby Tunkhannock Creek belongs to the Lehigh River watershed, linking this interior landscape to one of eastern Pennsylvania’s principal rivers. Opened in 1968, Pocono Raceway is known for its unusual triangular layout and three differently configured turns. Its Long Pond setting has made the township familiar to racing audiences, while the wider area remains closely tied to the Poconos’ outdoor-recreation tradition.
