When to visit

The best time to visit Hershey is during the summer months from June to August when the weather is warm and ideal for outdoor activities. Fall, from September to November, is also a great time to visit as the foliage is stunning. Winter can be cold with snow, but Hershey's Christmas Candylane is a magical experience. Spring, from March to May, brings blooming flowers and milder temperatures.

Getting around

Getting around Hershey is easy with a car, as the town is spread out and attractions are not within walking distance. Visitors can also use ride-sharing services like Uber or Lyft. The Hershey Trolley Works offers guided tours of the town, and there are bike rentals available for exploring the area on two wheels. Parking is plentiful at most attractions.

Traveller tips

Make sure to try the famous Hershey's chocolate while in town. Purchase tickets for Hersheypark online to save time waiting in line. Wear comfortable shoes as you will be doing a lot of walking. Check the weather forecast before your trip and pack accordingly. Don't forget to visit Hershey's Chocolate World for a sweet experience. Be prepared for crowds during peak tourist seasons.
