🌳 THE HIKE | 90 MINUTES

We’ll follow the scenic Green Ribbon Trail southeast along Wissahickon Creek on a fairly flat, out-and-back hike.

Expect beautiful woods, peaceful streams, fresh air, and plenty of opportunities to connect with some great people. We’ll turn around after approximately 45 minutes and head back.

🍻 THEN COME BRAD’S HIDDEN GEMS!

After our hike, the adventure continues! Brad has put together a collection of some of his favorite local discoveries, including:

• Forest & Main Brewing Company: A charming local brewery with fantastic craft beers.
• Gaslight at Porter: A hidden upstairs speakeasy with an intimate atmosphere.
• Tannery Run Brew Works: Creative craft beers, flights, and great gastropub food.
• Well Crafted Beer Company: A welcoming brewery and beer garden.
• Yellow Tea House: A charming tea house for another daytime adventure.

We won’t visit every place. Brad will help us choose where the afternoon takes us! Join the group afterward or explore on your own.

✨ A DIFFERENT KIND OF MAGIC HOUR

Magic Hour isn’t just about sunrise or sunset. It’s about taking an hour or two out of your day to do something different, discover someplace new, and connect with people along the way.

Brad plans to introduce us to different local gems on future outings, so every adventure will offer something new!

Explore. Connect. Inspire.

Join us on our next adventure at Magic Hour Adventures!

Subject to weather conditions. Please check back at noon on the day of the hike for updates.
