Follow along with Joe Berk as he tells you about what makes Hershey an exciting motorcycle touring destination: fun back roads and plenty of chocolate.

The Skinny

  • What: Hershey, Pennsylvania. Milton Hershey’s company town and museum make for a great destination.
  • How to Get There: Hershey is 93 miles west (and a bit north) of Philadelphia. From Philadelphia, take Interstate 76 west and follow the signs for Hershey. From the west, take Interstate 81 east.
  • Best Kept Secrets: The riding and the food. For world-class dining, a restaurant called “What If” is tucked away in the basement of a Howard Johnson motel (if you don’t look for it, you won’t see it). For breakfast or lunch, The Pantry (just outside of downtown) gets my nod. Trust me, both are awesome.
