This is a nice trail in need of a great deal of maintenance. It is very wet and muddy. The parking lot is small and my vehicle was broken into while we were walking. In total four vehicles were broken into while we were on the trail for less than an hour and a half
Wonderful loop trail that is ideal for younger kids. Rocks are down for much of the trail so it is manageable after a rain. Lots of little water falls for kids to enjoy and total walk is about a mile and a half so a good way for youngsters to grow their endurance. Could do a stroller, though maybe better with slightly larger wheels. We have seen lots of wildlife including frogs, turtles, fish, ducks, a beaver, and a wide variety of birds.
Beautiful park with well maintained trails in Lower Gwynedd. There are several man-made dams that the creek flows over provides picturesque senerey.
Nice little trail near the Gwynedd Mercy University campus. Well marked with several options for longer hikes. Pet friendly (as long as you clean up!), and mostly litter free. There is a small stream/lake with some small waterfalls. Great for pictures. Gets far enough off Summneytown Pike you don’t hear the road noise, just the birds, frogs and woodpeckers!
