This family-friendly hike will take in many of the most interesting Wissahickon sites. From the Valley Green Inn, down Forbidden Drive, we will visit the Livezey Dam and Gorgas creek cave. Crossing the Mt Airy bridge, we will take the hillside trail upstream past interesting rock formations, and pass through the intriguing, enclosed, steel mesh Fingerspan Bridge. We will stop to enjoy our snacks and drinks on the stone steps high above the scenic Wissahickon Creek and continue on to Devils Pool and Pee Wee rock on our return path to the Inn. A hike of moderate difficulty on some rocky trails.

Meet at Valley Green Inn.
