Our Discover the Wissahickon hike series is presented by Newrez.
Join Trail Ambassadors Eric Dahlberg, Courtney Malley, Amy Hirsch, and Chris Unander on a hike in the south section of the Park. We’ll pass by the Toleration statue, Kitchen’s Lane Shelter, and Historic RittenhouseTown. This moderately difficult hike has some rocky trails and steep elevation changes.
