Looking for an adrenaline fix? With the most wooden roller coasters in the country as well as some of the fastest and steepest, Pennsylvania is your home for white-knuckled, edge-of-your-seat excitement. We also have the most vintage amusement parks in the nation—eight are more than 100 years old. Now that's what we call good old-fashioned fun!
Of course, there's more to these thrill factories than pure, unadulterated thrills—there's fun for the whole family, from water parks to Ferris wheels and everything in between. Take a trip to big-name places like HERSHEYPARK®, or visit local gems like Lakemont and Kennywood. There's plenty of parks for youngsters, too. Go on rides with Big Bird at Sesame Place, or visit Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood at Idlewild.
To plan a visit or find a park near you, use the search tool. With it, you can sort amusement parks by region, city, or name. You can also find all nearby attractions, restaurants, and accommodations, or browse for related coupons or packages.
If one amusement park in a weekend just isn't enough for you, you might want to take an Amusement Park roadtrip! See if you (and your stomach!) can handle it. Find out how one family conquered the Commonwealth’s coasters by getting to know the Krugers—VisitPA sent this family of fun seekers around the state to give the amusement parks a whirl. Their blogs tell quite a story!
