Quick Escapes from Philadelphia
by Marilyn Odesser-Torpey

From the Quick Escapes series.

24 Weekend Getaways from the City of Brotherly Love

Too much work? Too much worry? Need a change of scene?

Twenty-two quick and convenient minivacations take you away from the hustle and bustle of the city:

  • Whisk the kids to the state capital for a free tour of the capitol building, have lunch at the famed Broad Street Market, then hop over to Hershey to see how chocolate bars are made in the Harrisburg and Hershey escape.
  • Stroll among cozy gingerbread cottages, sample your favorite seaside sweets, climb a lighthouse for panoramic views, and stay at a comfortable Victorian inn in the Cape May escape.
  • Explore any one of sixty hiking trails, "float" or fish on peaceful backwater streams, dine at casual cafes, and rest at a mountaintop retreat in the Delaware Water Gap escape.
Inside you will find:
- Detailed route maps - Travel directions - Destination highlights - Activities for morning, afternoon, and evening - Choice restaurants, picnic sites, and lodgings - Special events and festivals - Shopping - Local sources of information
