WhereTime Stops
&TraditionKeepsGoing
For nearly a century, Knoebels has been a treasured getaway for families seeking timeless fun and time together. Tucked in the heart of Pennsylvania’s beautiful Susquehanna River Valley, it’s a place where smiles come easy, laughter echoes through the trees, and memories linger long after the day is done.
With more than 100 rides and attractions, there’s something for everyone — from gentle family favorites to Phoenix, named the world’s best wooden coaster. Savor award‑winning food that’s every bit as much a tradition as the rides themselves. Cool off in the sparkling Crystal Pool, sway along to live music at the Hawaiian Bandshell, and end the day under the stars at our shaded campground.
For almost 100 years, families have made Knoebels part of their story. This season, we invite you to make it part of yours.
