6 Best and Fun Things To Do In Abington, Pennsylvania


TouristWire Editors

This settlement is among the oldest in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania.

It’s surrounded by picturesque woodlands and hiking trails, making it the perfect destination for nature lovers.

For those who prefer to spend their time indoors, however, there is Hope Lodge, a colonial mansion built in the 1700s, and Abington Art Center, which is set on the historic grounds of Alverthorpe Manor.

Those who want to get creative can take advantage of all the classes that the art center has to offer, which range from acrylic and oil painting to metalsmithing and ceramics.

Visitors can also catch the occasional live performance or outdoor screening on the lawn in front of the manor house, while the Annual Summer Concert Series is not to be missed!
