Hike to the Future on the Cresheim Trail

For over a decade, Friends of the Cresheim Trail have been planning and advocating for future phases — while leading volunteer workdays to build the existing trail network. That 2-mile network between Allens Lane, Germantown Avenue, and Wissahickon Valley Park will soon use an old Pennsylvania Railroad corridor to extend to Stenton Avenue, and eventually continue into Montgomery County toward a final destination of Fort Washington State Park. Join FOCT to preview the future trail and learn what goes into building a trail. This hike is roughly three miles and will cover moderate terrain. Wear boots and long pants, and remember to bring water.
