Knoebels Amusement Resort

Knoebels Amusement Resort (oftened shortened to just Knoebels) is a family-owned and operated amusement park, picnic grove, and campground in Elysburg, Pennsylvania. Opened in 1926, it is the United States' largest free-admission park. Visitors are able to ride the park's attractions by purchasing unlimited-access wristbands, limited-access hand stamps, or books of tickets. The amusement park is owned and operated by the Knoebel family. The park's name has traditionally been spelled "Knoebels" without an apostrophe, and appears that way on all official park advertising and correspondence. The park has 58 rides, including three wooden roller coasters, three steel roller coasters, a 1913 carousel, and a dark ride. The park and its rides have won awards from organizations such as Amusement Today, American Coaster Enthusiasts (ACE), and the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions (IAAPA). In 2014, Travel Channel rated Knoebels one of their Top 10 Family Friendly Amusement Parks in the United States, and in 2026, TripAdvisor ranked it as the number one amusement park in the United States.
