The Paxtang Parkway is a 1.2 mile section of scenic walking paths within the Capital Area Greenbelt in Paxtang, Pennsylvania.
Along with Harrisburg's Cameron Parkway, they were the first sections created of the Greenbelt.
The Parkway then led through Reservoir Park and eventually up to Herr Street and then Elmerton Avenue, completing a beltway through Harrisburg.
[1] Following the birth of the City Beautiful Movement around 1900, landscape architect Warren Manning envisioned a loop of natural garden pathways around Harrisburg.
By 1906, the Paxtang and Cameron Parkways were the two initially built.
