Summer in Happy Valley

RECHARGE YOURSELF

Recharge this summer in Happy Valley, Pennsylvania—where the energy you’re looking for doesn’t come from a cord, but from connection. Reset your pace with scenic hikes through more than 750,000 acres of public land, cast a line in world-famous trout streams, or take in the natural beauty of our outdoor spaces. Afterward, recharge with field-to-fork favorites like RE Farm Café or Pine Grove Hall, then sip something local on the Central PA Tasting Trail. Explore art museums like the Palmer Museum of Art and the Bellefonte Art Museum, or dive into unforgettable experiences like an underground boat tour at Penn’s Cave, WingFest at Tussey Mountain, or cheering on the athletes at IRONMAN HAPPY VALLEY PENNSYLVANIA. Catch a concert or show at the Bryce Jordan Center and make it a night to remember. Whether you're dancing under the stars or savoring local flavors, plan your summer recharge now at HappyValley.com.
