Reply to comment by phantomjm in Three Pennsylvania amusement parks named among best in the U.S. (Kennywood, Knoebels, and Hersheypark) by zorionek0

I can't speak of Kennywood, but I definitely agree with Hershey on the bottom. Knoebels just has a different feeling to it that I've always gravitated towards.

I love that Knoebels has so many trees. I think it's part of what gives it that different feel. Honestly, the little nature train might even be my favorite ride in the park. Riding through the trees and smelling the forest and feeling the breeze on a warm day is one of my favorite Knoebels memories.

Same here! I love the train. The chair lift is also relaxing, unless you're not a fan of heights.

Yeah, Hershey Park is cool but it always sort of felt like it was trying to be too many things to too many people. Like, Knoebels is very clearly a family park.

Hershey's great for concerts though, and I will always love chocolate world.
