ThingstoDo


The region’s tale is told in the tower- ing blast furnaces of Bethlehem’s SteelStacks™, reborn today as the backdrop for musical performances and festivals, community celebra- tions, and art exhibitions. The narra- tive meanders through Easton’s canals that once triumphantly served industries like coal, silk, steel and iron, but now transport guests for dinner cruises on Pennsylvania’s only mule-drawn canal boat.


And while it's true that a walking tour of downtown Bethlehem offers a deep look into Colonial history, the region, as a whole, offers far more than just historic sites. Lehigh Valley has developed a rich, sustained arts and entertainment scene, especially when it comes to live music. Famous names pack historic theaters, churches, and outdoor pavilions.


Outdoor enthusiasts enjoy kayaking along the Lehigh and Delaware rivers, hiking miles of trails, and ped- aling miles of bike trails and quiet country roads.


Residents and visitors alike love the farmers markets nearby, especially during harvest times. Still others enjoy tours and tastings at more than 12 wineries, while hops-lovers sam- ple some of the area's award-win- ning, small-batch breweries that make up the Lehigh Valley Ale Trail.
