Field trip! Our team recently had the opportunity to experience the TOPP Trail (The Old PA Pike Trail) firsthand, and it's easy to see why this one-of-a-kind destination continues to capture the imagination of visitors.
There's nothing better than getting out to experience the places we love promoting.
And this fall you can lace up for the End of the Road Half Marathon & 4 Miler, a one-of-a-kind race that takes runners along the historic TOPP Trail, including a scenic stretch through Bedford County! Whether you're chasing a PR or simply looking for your next unforgettable event, this is one worth adding to your calendar: bit.ly/4fa97cU

In June the Bedford County Hiking Club tackled Section 3 of the Mid State Trail. After carpooling from Discover Bedford to the trailhead, the 4.5-mile point-to-point family-friendly hike took them along the trail from the historic Civil War Trenches to Point 36.
The next adventure is Section 4 on Wednesday, July 22. Make the most of your visit with exclusive discounted lodging rates available through our partner, Hampton Inn Bedford.
Explore the trail by day and enjoy a comfortable stay by night.

The adventure doesn't have to end when the day does.
After a day spent exploring trails, shops, attractions, and local dining, settle in, relax, and make Bedford County your home away from home.
Sometimes the best part of the trip is waking up and doing it all again tomorrow.
