Twenty-five years after September 11, 2001, Somerset County, Pennsylvania remains forever connected to the story of Flight 93. In this episode of Tonight's Destination with The Fun Chasers, we’re joined by Eric Knopsnyder, Director of Public Relations and Community Outreach for GO Laurel Highlands, to explore the history, resilience and experiences that make Somerset County such a unique Pennsylvania destination.

We begin with the Flight 93 National Memorial in Shanksville, reflecting on the significance of the 25th anniversary of September 11 and how the story of Flight 93 continues to be shared with new generations.

We also visit another remarkable chapter in Somerset County history: the Quecreek Mine Rescue, where nine miners were trapped underground in 2002 and, after an extraordinary rescue effort, all nine came home alive.

But those stories are only part of Somerset County.

We also discover the Great Allegheny Passage (GAP) and its trail towns, including Meyersdale, Rockwood and Confluence; head into the mountains for outdoor adventures; talk about Seven Springs Mountain Resort and four-season fun; discover historic covered bridges; and explore the small towns and beautiful scenery that make this corner of Pennsylvania worth slowing down for.

And we can't talk about Somerset County without talking about maple syrup! Somerset County is Pennsylvania's leading maple-producing county, with generations of maple-making traditions, working sugar camps and the annual Pennsylvania Maple Festival in Meyersdale.

From powerful American history and stories of resilience to mountain adventures, biking, skiing, covered bridges, maple country and small-town discoveries, Somerset County has much more to experience than many travelers realize.

We talk about Lewiston, Old Fort Niagara, Olcott, Lockport and the Erie Canal, things to do around the city of Niagara Falls, and why it pays to leave some extra time in your itinerary to explore beyond the Falls themselves.

🍽️ WHAT'S ON YOUR PLATE?

We're also talking FOOD! From places to grab a bite around Niagara Falls to some of the local favorites you'll find while exploring the region, we're asking one of our favorite new travel questions:
