Let's explore Wildwood Park and Fort Hunter! Check out this recap from @thismessymamahood (IG) and scroll for the Spanish caption -- Are you looking for some fall family-friendly outdoor activities in Central PA? Check out our afternoon at Wildwood Park and Fort Hunter, just minutes away from downtown Harrisburg.We started at Wildwood and spent some time at the Olewine Nature Center, which included interactive displays, and a children’s discovery area and library. Then we spent a few hours hiking a few of the many trails, including the boardwalk, while discovering lots of native plants and animals along the way. Then we drove just a few minutes down the road to Fort Hunter Mansion & Park. Fort Hunter is one of our favorite places to go to take in the scenic Susquehanna River. With 40 acres and lots of history to explore, it's sure to be a place you'll come back to again and again. Do you enjoy outdoor adventures in the fall? Spanish Caption:---------------------¿Buscas actividades al aire libre para toda la familia este otoño en el centro de PA?Echa un vistazo a nuestra tarde en Wildwood Park y Fort Hunter, a solo minutos del centro de Harrisburg. Comenzamos en Wildwood y pasamos tiempo en el Olewine Nature Center. Durante nuestra visita vimos exhibiciones interactivas, un área de descubrimiento para niños y una biblioteca. Luego pasamos unas horas recorriendo algunos de los muchos senderos, incluido el malecón, mientras descubríamos la flora y fauna nativa a lo largo del camino. Luego condujimos solo unos minutos por la carretera hasta Fort Hunter Mansion & Park. Fort Hunter es uno de nuestros lugares favoritos para contemplar el pintoresco río Susquehanna. Con 40 acres y mucha historia para explorar, seguramente será un lugar al que se regresará una y otra vez. ¿Disfrutas de las aventuras al aire libre en el otoño?
