The Wissahickon in June with Andi Wingert and Debbie Hoellein
June 27, 2023 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm
Meet at Blue Bell Hill Park
Experience the Wissahickon in June with Andi, Debbie, and Jim. We last did this hike in January when we had beautiful vistas because the leaves were down. This time we will have beautiful flora and hopefully will hear if not see some pretty birds. Our 3.5-4 mile hike will bring us to the East Falls trail on the other side of Lincoln Drive where we will visit the McKinney Quarry. Expect some steep and rocky climbs and descents. Children 12 years and older are welcome when accompanied by an adult, but please, no dogs except for service animals.
Distance: ~3.5 miles
Level: Difficult (many inclines and declines, uneven surfaces)
