About New Cumberland (PA)
Founded in the early 19th century and officially incorporated in 1831, New Cumberland's history is deeply tied to transportation, originally flourishing as a key stop along the Cumberland Valley Railroad. This legacy is preserved in its well-maintained historic district, featuring Victorian and Federal-style homes. Culturally, the borough embodies a classic Pennsylvania community spirit, with local events often centered around its parks and community center. While New Cumberland itself is a quiet residential and commercial hub, its fame comes from its proximity to major landmarks. It is famously the closest borough to the West Shore of the Susquehanna, providing easy access to Harrisburg's Capitol Complex, City Island, and the National Civil War Museum. The area is also a haven for outdoor recreation, serving as a corridor to the Appalachian Trail and the natural beauty of Wildwood Park. The local identity is a mix of proud history, suburban comfort, and a strategic location that makes it a practical and pleasant home base for regional tourism.
Best Time to Visit New Cumberland (PA)

During these periods, you'll enjoy mild, pleasant temperatures ideal for outdoor activities like hiking sections of the Appalachian Trail or exploring Fort Hunter Park, with average highs in the 60s and 70s°F. Summer (July-August) is peak season, coinciding with major events like the Pennsylvania Renaissance Faire and Hersheypark's summer operations, but it brings higher heat and humidity. Winter (December-February) is the off-peak season, with colder weather and occasional snow, but it offers the magical Christmas displays at Hershey Sweet Lights and fewer crowds. Spring can be rainy, while fall features stunning foliage, making drives through the surrounding countryside particularly beautiful. For a balance of good weather and manageable tourist traffic, the shoulder months of May and September are highly recommended.
