"This tiny town of 1,522 people, 15 miles north of Harrisburg, is making the most of having the Appalachian Trail running down its main street. Taking advantage of natural surrounding is a tool for economic development. Nature-based Tourism also known as Ecotourism is a great way for a town like Duncannon to revitalize itself." - Progress Pennsylvania
Also check out the Case Studies page to read about post-industrial town turned outdoor recreation destination - Jim Thorpe, PA. Also highlighted is Damascus, VA - which dubs itself the "friendliest town on the trail." Do I smell a challenge?
