Looking to take a historic adventure with your dog? Explore the dog-friendly sites across the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania! From Appalachian trailheads to a taste of a simpler country life, here are a few great spots to explore with your pal throughout the Keystone State.

Michaux State Forest
Near Gettysburg, Pennsylvania

With more than 90 miles of hiking trails, you two won't run out of new places to explore at the 85,000-acre State Forest. After a brisk walk on the famed Appalachian Trail, hop in the car for a sightseeing drive and admire breathtaking views of mountains, ponds, and streams at one of the district's scenic overlooks – a perfect photo-op for you and your best friend.

Hartwood Acres Park and Amphitheater
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

After exploring the sights of Pittsburgh, listen to the sounds of the city by heading over to the Hartwood Acres Park and Amphitheater for an outdoor concert with your dog. This 629-acre park offers leashed and off-leashed areas and boasts an outdoor amphitheater, famous for its Summer Concert Series and other musical delights throughout the year for you and your leashed dog to enjoy.

John F. Kennedy Plaza/LOVE Park
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

No trip to Pennsylvania would be complete without a stop in Philly. Whether it's to grab a world-renowned Philly cheesesteak with your pal or to simply sightsee, don't miss the chance to pose for a photo-op with your best friend in front of the LOVE sculpture across from Philadelphia City Hall.

Hershey Conewago Campground
Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania

From beautiful landscapes and outdoor activities to many rustic restaurants, this pastoral setting offers great opportunities for adventure, and also the chance to spend some down time together in one of the seven rustic log cabins or 160 RV and tent sites at the Hershey Conewago Campground. With 26 acres to roam and a serene half-acre pond to cool off in, this place makes for a great weekend getaway.

The Amish Farm and House
Lancaster, Pennsylvania

Great for a family reunion with the whole litter, the Amish Farm and House offers an escape from the hustle and bustle of city life with dog-friendly tours of the Amish countryside. From exploring a barn built in 1803 to enjoying the fresh air, grab a leash and enjoy the simpler life.
