McKaig Nature Center Hike

June 15 @ 10:00 am - 12:30 pm

Free

Join us for some enjoyable exercise: an approximately 2.2-3.5 mile hike on trails at McKaig Nature Center in Wayne, PA. The difficulty level will be moderate, with speeds around 3 to 3.5 mph in the easier sections, and lower in hilly and uneven sections (rocks, tree roots, etc.); total elevation gain will be approximately 350-650 feet. There is not much total elevation gain, but some of the elevation occurs over short distances (meaning: steep but short section). There are plenty of flatter and downhill sections. We will stop periodically, especially at the tops of hills if some go up faster than others, so that we all continue on the same hike.

Meet in the Roberts Elementary School parking lot (next to McKaig Nature Center) at the above address. GPS coordinates: 40.0750, -75.3861

Bring water, clothing appropriate for the weather (layers work well), sturdy footwear (hiking shoes or boots work well), and a smile. Well-behaved dogs are welcome on a 6’ or shorter leash as required by the park.
If the hike is canceled, such as due to weather, we plan to announce this at least two hours in advance.
