Neighborhood Walk (Glenside)
Details
Enjoy a casual walk around the neighborhood while getting to know the many places we have and how local groups are working to improve them. Each walk is a loop that takes 30-60 minutes at a modest pace and includes a place to get a treat. We will meet as a group, walk, observe the local urbanism, and discuss what we see.
Meet at Glenside Train Station outside Elcy's Cafe. 1 W Glenside Ave, Glenside, PA 19038. Paid parking available in SEPTA lot, free parking available on side streets. 22 Bus stops are nearby.
Route: Meet at Elcy's (optionally: grab a treat before we start walking). We will walk south on Easton to Royal to Bickley to Waverly to Keswick to Mt Carmel to Easton. Total distance 1.6 miles, "36 minutes" - includes a steep hill, but walkers that don't want to walk the hill can turn on Toxony or Waverly for a shorter route with no hill, then meet up with the group on Bickley. (This shorter route will be taken in inclement weather.)
