Pure Luxury

“Call me spoiled - but I love to be treated like a queen when traveling. Only the best is good enough for me. Hotels that make my vacation a dream of luxury and seduction are my choices. Pay attention to the (violet Medal) for luxury accommodation.”

Sustainable Travel

“There is only one earth and we should go out and see it. I like hotels, which look for sustainability. It is not only protecting the ecology, but also taking care for the local business and culture. I recommend the medal for eco accomodation. Let’s protect our earth. Sustainable travel is travelling with responsibility.”

Markus Lenk, Düsseldorf, Germany

Corry offers several different reasons to stay: the nature-filled City Park in the center, the Corry Junction Greenway Trail, local history, and the annual Corry Fest. This selection can help you decide what to focus on during your trip: a relaxing break, outdoor activities, history, or an event. The park and trail offer different ways to spend time outdoors; the museum and historic downtown provide other points of interest.

City Park: a nature-filled break and memorials

City Park is located in the center of town and covers three acres. Its natural setting makes it a pleasant place for a relaxing break. The park has a pavilion, several monuments, and historic plaques. A Pennsylvania Historical & Museum Commission plaque honors a Corry businessman who helped establish the Pennsylvania Game Commission. Corry’s Civil War monument is also located there. Visitors interested in local memorials will find several different historical points of interest in the park. The park also hosts a farmers market. Market schedules, park facilities, and individual memorials may change.

Corry Junction Greenway Trail: a range of uses

The Corry Junction Greenway Trail is 5.1 miles long, and its trailhead is in Corry. The activities mentioned range from running, hiking, and cycling to snowmobiling, horseback riding, and cross-country skiing. Unlike City Park, the trail focuses on the route itself and its different uses. So which activity you plan for also depends on seasonal conditions. Possible extensions may affect the trail’s length; permitted uses and seasonal conditions may also change. Check these details before planning a specific activity.

Museum and historic downtown

The Climax locomotive B-1681 is the centerpiece of the Corry Area Historical Society Museum’s exhibits. The museum invites you to explore the local past of Corry and the surrounding region. For history enthusiasts, this offers a specific exhibit alongside a broader local and regional perspective. Exhibits and visitor policies may change. Admission is free; as admission policies may change, please check the latest information before your visit.

Downtown Corry was added to the National Register of Historic Places on April 4, 2022. This gives the museum visit an additional historical point of interest: downtown’s listing on the Register. The museum exhibits and Downtown Corry’s listing offer different ways to explore the town’s past.

Corry Fest and when to visit

Corry Fest is an annual homecoming celebration. The four-day festival features attractions, food vendors, artisans, music, magicians, and petting zoos. Its multi-day format and variety of activities make it a different reason to travel than the park, trail, or museum. If the festival determines when you travel, check the latest dates and program: both may change from one edition to the next.
