In this hike series, we are taking on the longest hiking-only footpath in the world – one section at a time. For this adventure, we are tackling the next Pennsylvania section. This is the perfect introduction to INTERMEDIATE-level hikes and is rated INTERMEDIATE- . We will be on the ridge for most of the day, then descend to the Delaware River, passing many viewpoints and a small lake called the Lenape Lake. Because this is a point-to-point hike, there is no need to double-back. It’s the Appalachian Trail, and it’s new places all day long. Come explore the AT with us!
