Late Fall Fort Hunter

Fall


Seasons change. Moments last. Plan your getaway for a long weekend of fall activities in the Hershey Harrisburg Region! We’ve got pumpkins in the patch, colorful leaves aplenty, and gallons of warm apple cider (and pumpkin beer) waiting for you. Carve out some time this season to discover the beauty and fun of a Pennsylvania fall in Hershey and Harrisburg. 

 

Fall Leaves

 

Best Places to see Fall Foliage

Don’t tell the other seasons, but we think fall is the most beautiful! Golden yellows, rusty reds, and fiery oranges make up our festival of fall foliage. Take a refreshing, colorful fall trek to Hawk Rock off the Appalachian Trail or one of our many serene hiking trails. Head to Riverfront Park in Harrisburg where you can take in panoramic views of the water and changing leaves. You can also bring your bikes and explore Wildwood Park and the rest of the 20-mile Capital Area Greenbelt.

 

 

Pick-Your-Own in a Pumpkin Patch
