Hersheypark

Hersheypark extends across 121 acres, featuring 76 rides including roller coasters, family attractions, and an 11-acre water park with multiple swimming areas.

Milton S. Hershey established this recreational area in 1906 as a leisure destination for employees of the Hershey Chocolate Company, starting with a pavilion and baseball field.

The park integrates chocolate themes throughout its attractions, restaurants, and architecture, reflecting the deep connection between Hershey's confectionery heritage and entertainment.

Visitors can access the park through Capital Area Transit services from neighboring cities, with direct transport options available from Harrisburg during summer months.

The Candymonium hyper coaster, part of the 2020 Chocolatetown expansion, represents the largest investment of $150 million in the park's development.
