Wonderful place to get a bit of a work-out while experiencing Pennsylvania history. I recommend you take mountain bikes if you want to make it from the entrance point to the service plaza and back in one day. Service shafts are still open above Sideling hill tunnel, and stairs/floors are very solid and climb-able. Access doors to interior tunnel ceiling are open, and ceiling is walkable (at least for the first few dozen feet). Underground drainage shafts still have ladders and are enterable if you're feeling super frisky. Rays hill tunnel has staircase completely torn out of one side but other side is accessible to service shaft if I remember correctly. The huge power turbines are still in service shafts of both tunnels. Bring flashlights or bike-lights for Rays hill tunnel as it's nearly a mile long and very dark!
