What to do and see in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania (PA): The Best Fun Activities & Games

June 8, 2021 Giuseppe Pratt

Nestled in the fertile Susquehanna Valley, Harrisburg has played a pivotal role in the shaping of American history, both as a major link in rail and water transportation and as the setting of major Civil War battles. Having bounced back from economic distress in the 1980s, the city is now a vibrant hub of family activities, from cruises along the Susquehanna to arcades and athletics on City Island. The annual Pennsylvania Farm Show is the largest indoor agriculture exposition in the U.S.

They have 2 escape rooms with different themes and they each require different methods of solving your escape. And now I see where they offer a mobile escape room where they come to you! You have 1 hour to solve the clues and find your way out. You can have up to 8 in your group but I think 6 is a good number. This is a really fun way to spend time with family or friends, or it could even make a great team building activity.

I used to live in the area - long before there was a team - but always want to take in a game here when I come back to visit family. Great sight lines from all seats, good food (and local beer!) selections and just a very nice feel to the park. On top of that, it's located on n island with a walking/biking bridge from Harrisburg. Park like setting in the middle of the Susquehanna River.
