- Knoebels Amusement Resort (/kəˈnoʊbəlz/) is a family-owned and operated amusement park, picnic grove, and campground in Elysburg, Pennsylvania. Opened in 1926, it is America's largest free-admission park. The park has more than 60 rides including three wooden roller coasters, three steel roller coasters, a 1913 carousel, and a haunted house dark ride.
The amusement park is owned and operated by the Knoebel (pronounced kuh-NO-bel) family, who also operate a lumber yard next to the park. The park's name has traditionally been spelled "Knoebels" without the apostrophe and appears that way on all official park advertising and correspondence.
The park straddles the line between Northumberland and Columbia Counties. The complex is mainly in the Columbia County townships of Cleveland and Franklin and is in Ralpho Township on the Northumberland County side of the South Branch Roaring Creek.
Admissions
The park offers free admission, free parking, and free entertainment. Visitors are able to ride the park's attractions by purchasing either pay-one-price, all-day/unlimited-access wristbands (which are not usually available on weekends, except near the beginning and end of each season), limited-access hand stamps or books of tickets, with hand stamp costs varying depending on the height of the rider. Knoebels has several hand stamp options, such as "Sundown Plan" and "Bargain Nights", when the park offers discounts on regular ride passes. Knoebels all-day passes do not include the Haunted Mansion or the Crystal Pool, which are additional fees. The "Scenic Skyway", Black Diamond, and the Flying Turns were also an additional fee when opened, but they have since been included in most pay-one-price plans.

(after the sound wet sneakers make), Haunted Mansion( a 3-minute dark ride that is consistently rated as one of the best traditional haunted houses) and one of the last remaining Fascination parlors in the United States, the park maintains more than 63 rides.

Great vid! This looks like a well thought out park with lots to do for everybody. I especially like the general admission/pay per ride deal. I don’t live in the area, but I would go out of my way to make a trip here.
I absolutely loved visiting this park. They have such a great collection of vintage rides, something for everyone to enjoy. I hope you're able to visit someday 😊
Currently camping at Knoebels
I hope you're having lots of fun 😃
Thank you for keeping the camera steady for each frame. I just watched another Knoebels video and I got a headache.
Flying turns rollercoaster is my favorite rollercoaster to ride.
That is one unique and fun coaster 😀
It's a nice pace. You can actually walk around and not spend a dime if you are just looking for a casual "something to do"....Other than that, to eat well and go on a bunch of rides it can be a $100 day.
This. I wish more theme parks were like this
The Horses dont move because they are ring collecting horses and the best horses to get.
That makes sense, I always wondered why some outer circle horses didn't move. Thanks for pointing that out.
You said Knoebels right but not Elysburg.
Yeah I should of asked how to pronounce that too 😕
2 quick corrections, 1 being you pronounce Elysburg wrong. No harm, lots of people do, 2nd correction is you said mini golf was 5 in tickets or the ride all day pass. mini golf is a separate charge. It is not included in the all-day band or ride tickets. Other than that, I'm glad you enjoyed yourself. For a different experience, I'd recommend camping there for a weekend. Tent, rv, or rent one of the cabins. I have been going to knoebels for 31 years now, started out camping with family when I was young. Now, I'm doing the same with my family and children.
Thanks for the correction, I must not of noticed the upcharge sign for the golf. It eas such an amazing amusement park. Camping sounds like it would really add to the fun experience. Perhaps one-day I'll camp there.
I feel it adds to the experience, you can spend more time at thw Park or enjoy the pool longer, know you don't have to drive however long back home. You just take a quick 20min or less walk to your site, site by a camp fire and wind down.
That pool looked like a great place to enjoy part of the day. The food options at the park we're surprising, so many options. 😋
Hi Tom, I subscribed. 5 of the rides allow dogs, any dogs, which is pretty awesome. I was hoping you’d mention the price of the Ferris Wheel. I’m gonna guess $3 or $3.50, do you remember? Since the park is free to enter, I would get the wristband, as you can ride rides multiple time. Also those cabins are much huger than I thought they would be. You should bring family and rent a cabin next time but you have to do it pretty far in advance
Thank You for subscribing 😊 The Ferris Wheel was 3.50, I didn't realize I missed the price. The wristband is the way to go if your planning on riding a lot of the rides. That dog apparently enjoyed his train ride, it was cute to see. 😁
Watching a video that's as close as I get to rides. We have an old train in our community park. They are very hard to get parts for, unfortunately. Thank you for sharing this.
I was very impressed with Knobles, lot's of great vintage rides and some awesome coasters. My local park also has a train that goes all throughout the property. They only bring it out during special events.
👍 So what were your thoughts on Knoebels Haunted Mansion? Would you ever return to this awesome unique park?
So much fun, it was o e of my favorite rides.
How can they say it's the best bumper cars in America if all you can do is go around in a circle (OK, oval)?!
Most places try to say they have the Best......
You can't really make bumper cars much better than they are already.
You pronounce Elysburg as ( e Leesburg(
Thanks for the correction, I made sure to pronounce Knobles correctly but failed with the city.
