This review is from: 60 Hikes Within 60 Miles: Harrisburg: Including Lancaster, York, and Surrounding Counties (Paperback)
This book is excellent. It's part of a series of books written by various authors. Read the reviews before buying. The Baltimore version has many errors. The Harrisburg version is excellent. We've heard the DC version is good too.

I bought this for my son who loves to hike and lives in Lancaster PA. He's really enjoying the book and has already tried several of the listed hikes. Highly recommended.

Novice Hikers,

This review is from: 60 Hikes Within 60 Miles: Harrisburg: Including Lancaster, York, and Surrounding Counties (Paperback)
I purchased this book for my husband for Christmas and he is very excited about it. Since we are beginner hikers, I thought this book would be great for us to start locally. It begins with what you need for hiking, which is great for the novice. The descriptions of the area and maps are great! The only negativity is there didn't seem to be very many trails listed for Franklin County. But we are very excited that most of the trails are within a few hours drive from our home.
We can't wait until the weather permits us to start hiking!
