About location

Built around scattered farmsteads and woodland clearings, Tunkhannock Township grew into a low-density Pocono community crossed by Interstate 80. It occupies rolling, heavily wooded terrain in the Pocono Mountains of northeastern Pennsylvania, where local roads, open fields and residential development are interspersed with large forested areas. The township forms part of Monroe County, a region long associated with the Poconos as a recreation destination for eastern Pennsylvania and nearby metropolitan areas. Pocono Raceway, the major motorsport circuit at Long Pond, lies within the township and gives this rural area a nationally recognised sporting connection. Interstate 80 remains its principal east–west transport route.

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.

Pennsylvania
Region Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania stretches from the shore of Lake Erie to the Delaware River, encompassing Appalachian ridges, plateaus and broad river valleys. Near the state’s geographic centre, the West Branch Susquehanna and its tributaries run through forested country, while the main Susquehanna continues south towards Chesapeake Bay. Philadelphia gives Pennsylvania an enduring place in the story of the United States: Independence Hall was the setting for the adoption of the Declaration of Independence and the signing of the Constitution. Former industrial cities, Amish and Mennonite communities, farms and state forests reveal markedly different sides of the Commonwealth.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
