Join Us as We Celebrate 5 Years of Rediscovering Home!

Back on May 23, 2018, when we launched DiscoverNEPA.com, the goal was simple enough. We wanted to tell stories. Our mission was to show the world all the things that made Northeastern Pennsylvania stand out as one of the greatest places to live, work and play. Over the years, as the videos, articles and photos piled up, as our social media following grew and grew, as we put mile after mile on the Jeep, it became undeniably clear – we had hardly scratched the surface.

And we’re perfectly fine with that. In fact, it only means that there are thousands more stories to tell. From brewhouses and taco shops to mountain trails and pickleball courts to all the amazing events and things to do, we’re so here for it! And there’s really only one thing that keeps us going. It’s you, good people of NEPA.

You, the restauranteur and the helicopter pilot, the BMX rider and the bird watcher, the kayaker and the forest dweller, the Queen of Tarts and the Prince of Potato Pancakes – the story of NEPA is your story. We’re just here to help tell it.

Come along! We’re lining up another incredible year of awesome NEPA adventures.
