In this 3.25-mile park "hop" we will hike a loop to explore two adjacent properties: 35-acre Valley Creek Park and 67-acre Cedar Hollow Preserve.

In Valley Creek, our dirt trail will hug Valley Creek until we hit a short, paved road, our connector to the Cedar Hollow Preserve. The preserve is a popular fishing spot, and we may see fishermen casting lines into the creek. The hike will include climbing over fallen trees, crossing a drainage creek and walking up a couple of small hills totaling 200 feet of elevation.

Although the hike is relatively flat, you should wear sturdy hiking or walking shoes and bring water. Dress in layers according to the weather. If it has rained, the dirt trails will be muddy.

We will meet in the Valley Creek Parking lot: 361 N Morehall Rd, Malvern, PA 19355. Please arrive promptly so we can depart at 9:45am.
