Details

3-4 hours, 7-10 miles, hilly, we hike through two watersheds: the Schuylkill and the Wissahickon (40%), via cool historic in streets and alleyways in Manayunk & Roxborough before we reach really nice trails in the Wissahickon. Includes Historic Cynwyd Trail and Manayunk Bridge Trail. Sometimes we take the path through historic Laurel Hill West Cemetery where many notables are buried including Teddy Pendergast, Grover Washington Junior, Billy Paul, Pew of the Pew Trusts/Sunoco Oil, and the father of baseball, Harry Wright.
