Local Attractions
Day trips can be the best part of a getaway, and there are no shortage of these with adventures beckoning for you to discover. One of the best and most highly recommended would have to be a trip to Gettysburg– a history so deeply rooted that you can feel it as you explore the memorials and welcoming shops in town. If your vacation timeline allows, driving through the battlefield deserves a full day to explore the historic lands sure to leave you in reverence.
–Should you find yourself visiting in the fall, the excitement and camaraderie of football at one of the many Penn State home games is an experience you should not miss. There isn’t much that matches the thrill, intensity and pure fun of a packed Beaver Stadium on a Saturday afternoon.
–Who doesn’t like chocolate? A trip to Central Pennsylvania would not complete without a visit to the Hershey Chocolate World. Chocolate and vacation go hand-in-hand and bring a smile to everyone’s face!
–Don’t forget about Knoebels Amusement Park and Resort, which isn’t just fun for the kiddos– the whole family will love this destination. From roller coasters to arcades, America’s largest free-admission amusement park will be a highlight on your vacation calendar!
