Rescheduled to 10/2 due to rain. Click here to register for the new date.

Join Jim and Debbie as we hike the Wissahickon in September. Let’s experience the changes in the park during early autumn. It should be cooler than when we last did this hike in August of 2022. As always, we will see some points of historical and natural interest as we walk trails on both sides of the Wissahickon in the northern part of the park. Our route includes some steep and rocky ascents and descents and is about 3.5- 4 miles long. Children 12 years of age and older are welcome when accompanied by an adult, but no dogs except for service animals, please.

Distance: ~3.5 miles

Level: Difficult (many inclines and declines, uneven surfaces)
