Some Things to do in E-Town & Surrounding Areas

If you can bear to tear yourself away from some of the most beautiful farmland in this area at Aberdeen Mills there are quite a few adventurous activities to participate in!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1. HIKING ON THE CONEWAGO CREEK TRAIL

Just a short walk from Aberdeen Mills is the magnificently maintained walking and biking trail – the Conewago Creek Trail. This trail has been added to Lancaster County Conservancy and will continue to be preserved for visitors.

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. VISIT AMISH COUNTRY

No trip to the Lancaster County area is complete without a visit to the Amish country.  Set aside a day to visit places of interest, such as:

  • The Amish Village
  • Buggy rides through the countryside
  • Lancaster Central Market
  • The Amish Experience
  • The Amish Farm and House









3. VISIT HERSHEY ATTRACTIONS

 Hershey Park is not just amusement rides anymore! Also enjoy:

  • Hershey Boardwalk (which is their premiere waterpark)
  • ZooAmerica
  • Hershey Gardens
  • Chocolatetown
  • Restaurants and Ice Cream and Candy shops

 

 

 

 

 

 


4. ALL ABOARD! THE STRASBURG RAILROAD 

Experience the spirit of the railways of the 1800s in nearby Strasburg. Ride the rails and maybe even meet Thomas the Tank Engine if he is in town! Tour the country side as they did in days gone by.

 

 

 

 

 

 

5. VISIT ANTIQUE SHOPS & FLEA MARKETS

Plan on a day long excursion to the Green Dragon Flea Market if you are counting on seeing everything offered there. Part Farmer’s Market, part bargain hunter’s paradise, you will need your walking shoes no doubts! Or try some of our local shops such as the Turquoise Bear’s Emporium or antiques malls such as Bootleg, Tollbooth or Burning Bridge to name a few.

Check out some of the old milling equipment at the mill! A fanning mill was one of the earliest pieces of farming machinery. It was used to clean seeds and grain by cranking a handle which operated a fan to blow away the chaff.
