Planning Your Visit

Dillsburg sits at the foot of South Mountain just south of Harrisburg — the Yellow Breeches Creek, Pine Grove Furnace State Park, and the Appalachian Trail are all within easy reach for outdoor enthusiasts.

A Closer Look

The Dillsburg Community Fair is a six-day mid-October fair in the Cumberland Valley gateway communities of northern York County, a late-season community tradition where the apple orchards of the South Mountain foothills meet the suburban growth of the Harrisburg metro area.
