 Knowbels (spelled Knoebels) Amusement Park &
Resort is a family owned and operated amusement park, picnic
grove and campground. Knowbels is located in Elysburg,
Pennsylvania and straddles two counties: Columbia and
Northumberland Counties. Knowbels opened in 1926, and
today the park boasts free admission with over 50 rides
including two world-class wooden roller coasters, a 1913
carousel and a world class haunted house dark ride that has been
featured on the Discovery Channel.
Knoebels continues to grow, adding and building
new rides while acquiring old favorites. Unlike the major
theme parks, general admission and parking at Knoebels are both
free and ride tickets are priced individually at very reasonable
rates, far below what typical theme parks charge. During weekdays and selected weekends,
you can buy a day pass and ride as many as you like all day
long. Knoebel's also has their own
highly rated campground near the park.
Knoebels Amusement Park and its rides have
won many awards over the years from organizations such as the
American Coaster Enthusiasts, Amusement Today and The
International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions.
Once you experience Knoebel's Grove Amusement Park, you
might not look at parks the same again. You might find
after a long day at the park that you are refreshed rather than
exhausted and sun burnt. As night falls the park take on a
different appearance as all of the rides and shops light up in a
colorful display.
