There will be bathroom access at the Valley Green Inn before we begin our hike.

We know that hiking all 50+ miles of trail can be daunting, and perhaps you don’t know where to start! Start your Challenge on a high note by logging a few miles on this guided hike, the first of a series that will take you across the Wissahickon, led by a variety of experienced guides, during this 10-week Challenge.
Registration is required for all hikes so that participants can be informed of weather or other emergency cancellations.
Unless otherwise specified, hikes may be on rocky, rugged trails that may be wet and slippery. Wear sturdy shoes or boots with socks. Walks are cancelled in heavy rain or icy conditions. Service animals are always welcome. For more information, contact Marisa Miller at miller@fow.org. Visit www.fow.org for updates.
Register here for the hike at 10 AM, beginning at the Valley Green Inn, followed by the Launch Party at 11 AM.
*Due to high demand, we will be leading TWO hikes from Valley Green Inn, one southbound on Orange Trail and one northbound on White Trail! The northbound hike will be less demanding; please let us know the morning-of if you’d prefer to do the easier route.
Register here for just the Launch Party, at the Valley Green Inn at 11 AM.
