From the Back Cover
Tired of the same old tourist traps? Take the road less traveled and discover the hidden attractions, unique finds, and unusual locales other guidebooks just don’t offer. Off the Beaten Path® features the things you’d want to see—if only you knew about them! From the best in local dining to quirky cultural tidbits, you’ll say over and over again: “I didn’t know that!”
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. Track migrating raptors at Hawk Mountain Sanctuary near Pottsville, climb the 700 stairs of the South Side Slopes for a panoramic view of Pittsburgh, or see and hear nickelodeons, band organs, and music boxes at the DeBence Antique Music World Museum in Franklin. So if you’ve “been there, done that” one too many times, get off the main road and venture Off the Beaten Path.
