Description: Join us for a moderate hike at Tohickon Valley Park. The hike will start at 127 Cafferty Road, Pipersville, PA 18947 GPS 40.437295, -75.078145

The trail is a scenic hike along the Tohickon Creek. The trail is 6.2 miles long with two sections of elevation change of 200 feet each. We will take the Orange trail, cross Tory Road, hike the loop down to the Tohickon Creek and return via the Blue Trail. There will be a brief stop at the creek to appreciate the view and a snack.

The orange trail is the most challenging section of the trail, with a narrow path that requires careful footing and may require navigation over some fallen trees. There are lots of rocks and roots on this trail. We will cross several small streams that may result in wet shoes.
Wear sturdy hiking shoes and bring poles if you usually use them. Bring water and a snack to eat along the trail.

Heavy rains will cancel this hike. Determination will be made by 8AM. Please check your email the morning of the hike to see if it is still on.
