Pennsylvania Off the Beaten Path: A Guide to Unique Places

Off the Beaten Path

by Christine O'Toole

Tired of the same old tourist traps? Whether you’re a visitor or a local looking for something different, let Pennsylvania Off the Beaten Path show you the Keystone State you never knew existed.

Discover extinct creepy crawlies at the Insectarium, the country’s largest bug museum. Put your car in neutral, take your foot off the brake, and feel the spooky effects of Gravity Hill. Head 150 feet underground to get an up-close look at the history of coal mining at Tour-Ed Mine.

So if you’ve “been there, done that” one too many times, get off the main road and venture Off the Beaten Path.

The “Off the Beaten Path” series is always a great way to check out a new travel spot. Those strange museums, hidden spots, and hideaways are always what make a vacation special.

Used for our trip to Gettysburg.

Nope! No pictures. Couple of maps. Weird break-down of putting Harrisburg in the South-East group? And the sites selected are weird. Truly 'off the beaten path'.
