GREAT LAKES Pennsylvania’s Lake Erie coast features everything you’d want from a beach: gentle waves, ice cream stands, and even a lighthouse. But the region boasts more than Lake Erie’s shore. Get a thrill at the horse races or down a water slide. Hit the links, and then rest in luxury in Mercer County. Search for wildlife in Hell’s Hollow. Taste test wines at a scenic vineyard, or sink your teeth into sun-ripened fruits and freshly baked treats at a farmers market. The state parks and wooded lakes teem with hiking, hunting, history, and heritage, offering something exciting for visitors of all ages.
