Pocono Raceway – NASCAR Racing Schedule – First Weekend of Summer!
Another Pocono Raceway NASCAR weekend is in the books—and in true Poconos fashion, the skies opened up just in time for race day. It’s practically tradition at this point: fast cars, roaring fans, and a little rain to keep things interesting. But that didn’t stop the energy, excitement, or the incredible turnout from fans across the country.
From the Great American Getaway 400 to the Explore the Pocono Mountains 250, the action on the track was electric. And off the track? We were thrilled to welcome so many of you to experience the other side of the Poconos—the wild, wet, and wonderful world of outdoor adventure.
Thank You, NASCAR Fans!
To everyone who joined us for Poconos Whitewater Rafting, Poconos Kayaking, Poconos River Tubing, Poconos SUP, Poconos Biking, Poconos Disc Golf, and Poconos Camping—thank you! You brought the same energy and enthusiasm from the grandstands to the rivers, trails, and campsites, and we couldn’t have asked for a better crew of adventurers.
Whether you were paddling through the Lehigh River’s Whitewater Rapids, cruising the D&L Trail on two wheels you rented from Poconos Bike Rentals, or floating lazily downriver with a cooler tube in tow, you helped make this race weekend one to remember.
From the Track to the Trail: The Poconos Has It All
If you thought the adrenaline rush ended at the checkered flag, think again. The Poconos is packed with outdoor experiences that rival any race-day thrill.
- Poconos Whitewater Rafting: Tackle Class II and III rapids on the Lehigh River for a heart-pounding ride through the Lehigh Gorge.
- Poconos Kayaking: Glide through calm stretches or take on more challenging waters—perfect for solo adventurers or couples.
- Poconos River Tubing: Kick back and float your way through scenic river bends. It’s the ultimate way to unwind after a high-octane weekend.

- Poconos Biking: Ride the historic D&L Trail and explore miles of forested paths, waterfalls, and wildlife.

- Poconos Camping: Whether you’re pitching a tent or parking an RV, there’s no better way to connect with nature than a night under the stars.
