The wider Lebanon area is known for Lebanon bologna, local farmers markets and historic landmarks such as the Union Canal Tunnel, one of the oldest transportation tunnels in the United States. Nearby Cornwall Iron Furnace and Governor Dick Park add industrial history and outdoor recreation.
Although Lebanon South itself is mostly residential, its location places visitors close to downtown Lebanon's shops, restaurants and cultural institutions, as well as Hershey, about fifteen miles away, where attractions include Hersheypark and Chocolate World.
Lebanon County offers easy access to Harrisburg, the state capital, and the broader Pennsylvania Dutch region. The area hosts community events and fairs throughout the year, giving it a calm, small-town character while remaining within reach of larger cities.
