Silent Hike in the Wissahickon

Meeting at Crefeld Street Trailhead (Crefeld Street & Lavender Trail)
Join Trail Ambassadors Pat Jacona and Margaret Kinnevy on a silent hike along the Lavender Trail. Focus your mind and body as we as silently walk some of the most beautiful trails in the park. This peaceful experience, while the sun is low on the horizon, will hopefully culminate in a view of the sun setting over the creek (weather permitting). There will also be time to connect with your fellow hikers.
This will be a moderately paced fitness hike of 4 miles with multiple stretches of rocky terrain.
Distance: 4 miles
Audience: Ages 18+
Parking and Transit: If you’re coming by car, there is nearby street parking all along Crefeld Street. The nearest transit options are the 51 and 97 buses at Germantown Ave & Norman Ln and the Chestnut Hill West train station. See map for details.
Restrooms: None
