Below is a table that is a list of all of the regions that have existed in Hersheypark. I chose to call all of the named areas regions because not all named areas were themed areas. For example, in 1982, Hersheypark named two areas of the park Spring Creek Hollow and Odyssey Alley. These didn’t count to the 7 themed areas the park already had – so they were simply a named area, not a themed area.
The first region created was the Sunken Garden in 1932 and the most recent were Kissing Tower Hill and Founder’s Way, created in 2014.
