The Land of Adventures, on the property of the former Land of Little Horses, sits on a scenic rural stretch just west of downtown Gettysburg in Adams County, Pennsylvania. It is a short drive from US Route 30 (Lincoln Highway) and US Route 15, which puts it within easy day-trip range of Harrisburg, Baltimore, Frederick, and York.
Driving directions
Open the route you’re coming from.
From the south: Washington DC, Frederick, Emmitsburg
Take US Route 15 North toward Gettysburg. Pass through Emmitsburg, continue north, and take the York Street (US Route 30) exit, turning left onto Route 30 West. Drive west through Gettysburg’s town center and Lincoln Square, then continue roughly 3 miles west on Route 30. Turn left onto Knoxlyn Road, go about 2 miles, then turn right onto Glenwood Drive. The park entrance is on your right after about a quarter mile.
From the north: Harrisburg and points north
Follow US Route 15 South to Gettysburg. Take the Route 30 / York Street exit and turn right (west) onto Route 30. Head west through town past the historic square for about 3 miles. Turn left onto Knoxlyn Road, drive roughly 2 miles, then turn right onto Glenwood Drive. The entrance is shortly ahead on the right.
From the east: York, Lancaster, Philadelphia
Take US Route 30 West directly into Gettysburg. Pass through the town center and continue west on Route 30 for several miles beyond the main battlefield areas. Turn left onto Knoxlyn Road (watch for signage), travel about 2 miles, and turn right onto Glenwood Drive. The entrance follows soon after.
From the west: Chambersburg, Pittsburgh
Drive east on US Route 30 (Lincoln Highway) toward Gettysburg. After passing through rural western Adams County, look for Knoxlyn Road on your right before you reach the denser town center. Turn right onto Knoxlyn Road, go about 1 to 2 miles, then turn right onto Glenwood Drive to the park entrance on the right.
Being just off Route 30 west of the town center means you skip most of the downtown traffic while staying close to Gettysburg’s historic sites, hotels, and restaurants.
