The Railroaders Museum and world famous Horseshoe Curve deserve a day to themselves. Baker Mansion (built during railroad's heyday), Fort Roberdeau settlers were defended by militia during American Revolution. Delgrosso's and Lakemont park amusement parks are both enjoyable and unique. ${QuickSuggestions} Plan to spend three days here. Start with trip to Railroad Museum in morning. Afternoon, take the ride to see the Horseshoe Curve and wander thru museum there. Next day you could do Fort Roberdeau and Baker Mansion both in the morning. Hit Lakemont Park in afternoon and stay as long as you want! The third day could be spent at DelGrosso's riding the rides, playing miniature golf, ride go-karts, and of course chow down on delicious amusement park food. ${BestWay} To make the best use of your time, especially if you are traveling with a family, you will definitely need a car. Public transportation is either not available or not convenient to all the sites. All attractions are within 10-15 minutes of each other.
