Lebanon, Pa. – This summer, Visit Lebanon Valley’s own Lebanon Lilly is hopping her fence and heading out on a sweet adventure across the Lebanon Valley. Visit Lebanon Valley invites residents and visitors alike to explore local ice cream destinations, discover scenic countryside views, and enjoy one of the sweetest ways to experience the Valley during the height of summer.
Running from July 1 through Labor Day, September 7, 2026, Lilly’s Ice Cream Trail features eight beloved locations throughout Lebanon County:
- Colebrook Crossing
- Ice Shack
- Jonestown KOA Campground
- Patches Family Creamery
- Pretzel Hut
- Rainbow Snow
- Raub’s Twin Kiss
- The Jigger Shop
Participants can pick up a trail passport at any participating location and begin collecting stamps at each stop. There is no cost to participate. Once all eight locations have been visited and the passport is complete, participants can submit it at their final stop or at Visit Lebanon Valley for a chance to win themed prize packages filled with local gift cards, merchandise, and other sweet surprises from participating businesses.
“Is there anything better than enjoying an ice cream cone on a summer day while taking in the beauty of the Lebanon Valley,” said Nancy Gates, President & CEO of Visit Lebanon Valley. “Lilly’s Ice Cream Trail is a fun way to discover local favorites, support small businesses, and experience the landscapes and agricultural heritage that make our community so unique.”
Lebanon County has long been rooted in agriculture, and many of the trail stops celebrate the area’s strong connection to local dairy farming. From a cow-to-cone experience to longtime community favorites, the trail highlights businesses that help tell the story of the Lebanon Valley’s agricultural heritage. As visitors travel from one location to the next, they’ll enjoy scenic drives through fertile farmland and charming small towns that showcase the Valley at its summertime best!
The trail is inspired by Lebanon Lilly, Visit Lebanon Valley’s lovable mascot and star of the children’s book series. Known for hopping over her fence to visit friends and explore new adventures throughout the Valley, Lilly serves as the perfect guide for a summer journey filled with sweet treats.
Passports are available beginning July 1 at all participating locations and at the Visit Lebanon Valley office. Completed passports must be submitted by September 7, 2026, to be eligible for prize drawings.
