     Lake Akiba is always a pleasure to visit. You truly should fancy Lake Akiba. There are some wonderful whitewater spots on Lehigh River, and Camelback is a good local ski area. The high level of rainfall makes Lake Akiba a rather wet spot; most of the rain falls during May while February is generally the driest month. This lake is so wonderful. Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor is one of the destinations next to Lake Akiba that are splendid to go  
   to, and since you're here you can take a hike along the Indian Trail.
A great spot to camp here at Lake Akiba is Chestnut Lake Campground; if you're popping by from East Stroudsburg, you won't be the only one. This lake is so wonderful. Going for a hike along the Camelback Trail will let you absorb the natural beauty of this vicinity, naturally you could also check out Grubers Lake since you're here; it's not far at all. Looking for something right next
 
               door to Lake Akiba? Mountain Spring Lake is nearby, also Camp Akiba Dam is worth taking a look at since you're here.
You assume that's enough? Just getting warmed up. A fine close by hotel is Chateau Resort at Camelback. After a long day outdoors Tannersville Days Inn is a fine location to spend a night or two, and whitewater paddling is not for everybody but if it's for you then, we recommend Pocono Creek. Lake Akiba is brilliant enough to spend more than a day at, Silver Valley Campsites is a brilliant local campground, and do stop by Fall Creek while you're here at Lake Akiba.
The slopes of Alpine Mountain are so inviting nobody can resist, and on a perfect day you can take a hike along the Lakeside Trail. At Lake Akiba throughout the warm months highs are in the 70's, and the nighttime is somewhat chillier of course, mostly in the 50's. The wintertime brings highs down to the 30's, and winter nights come with lows in the 10's to Lake Akiba.
