FAQ

Blue Knob All Seasons Resort does not permit drone flying. Our residents and guests enjoy the privacy and quiet of the mountain, and, in the winter season, drones can present safety and liability issues with chairlifts and customers. Much of our resort is immediately adjacent to or part of Blue Knob State Park and PA State Game Lands, neither of which allow drones under state law.  The Pennsylvania Board of Game Commissioners has banned drones on game lands and any other property controlled by the Game Commission. DCNR's drone policy for Blue Knob State Park is as follows: Drone Restrictions: To protect park resources, limit conflict with other park users, and avoid safety and privacy liabilities, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), remotely piloted vehicles (RPV) or unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), all commonly referred to as DRONES, are only permitted on designated flying fields in six remote controlled airfield parks (Beltsville, Benjamin Rush, Hillman, Lackawanna, Prompton, and Tuscarora). Drones are only permitted in other PA State Parks in very limited circumstances which require a special use permit.

Here at Blue Knob, we're all animal lovers and we want to keep them, their owners and our guests safe. For the safety of both humans and pets alike, during the winter sports season, we do not permit dogs on the slopes during any hours that the lifts are in operation and customers are using the slopes. Dogs are not permitted on the lifts at any time.  In the off season, we welcome those who want to hike with their dog, as long as they remain in control of their pet at all times. Except for credentialed service animals assisting a disabled guest, we do not permit dogs (including support animals) in the Summit Lodge, Blue Knob Clubhouse, Conference Center or any other facility on the mountain that serves food. We ask that you do not bring your pet to Blue Knob events.

For the 2024-2025 winter season, Blue Knob All Seasons Resort will be renting a limited number of Sno-Go snow bikes. Blue Knob rentals will be the only snow bikes permitted on the slopes - no privately-owned snow bikes are permitted. Blue Knob does not permit any other ski bikes or similar devices on the slopes. This includes, Fat Tire bikes, , mountain bikes, snow scooters & cross country mountain biking. ALSO PROHIBITED: Snowskates, sleds, toboggans, snowmobiles, and, all year long, no ATV’s or any motor vehicles, including motorcycles. (Service vehicles operated by resort personnel are the exception.)
