Vote for Pocono Downs at Mohegan Pennsylvania
USA TODAY 10Best Readers' Choice Awards
Best Horse Racing Track
For a different kind of horse-racing experience, Pocono Downs at Mohegan Pennsylvania is the place to be. Boasting a 5/8-mile harness-racing track where Standardbred trotters and pacers compete by pulling their human drivers in a two-wheeled cart called a sulky, this racetrack has been a part of the Pennsylvania Pocono mountains scene since 1965. The racing season is from March to November.
