2nd Fridays in Upper Bucks Hike - Mariton Wildlife Sanctuary

While not technically in Upper Bucks, Natural Lands Trust property Mariton Wildlife Sanctuary is just on the border, and you can almost see into Bucks County from some of the overlooks. This will be a brisk to moderate 4-5 mile hike with lots of ups and downs. The 200-acre Mariton Wildlife Sanctuary and Wilderness Trust is perched on the steep slopes of Bougher Hill overlooking the scenic Delaware River and canal. A favorite site of birders, hiking trails lead visitors through a variety of forest types and meadow areas that are home to abundant wildflowers and wildlife. We'll meet in the parking lot at 10 am (Preserve entrance on Sunnyside Rd, 1/2 mile northeast of Spring Hill Road, Riegelsville, PA) and make a variety of loops out of the trails and overlooks. Some hill climbs. Bringing water and a hearty snack or lunch is recommended. Rain or heavy snow cancels. If there's ample snow on the ground, bring your own cross country skis or loaner snowshoes will be available.
