Thursday July 25, 2013 - Port Clinton Towpath

AL will lead a 4 + mile hike in Port Clinton. This hike will be mainly on the old Schuylkill Canal Tow Path Trail in Port Clinton. The trek is woodland walking along the Schuylkill River. We also will follow an uphill trail along a feeder stream which empties into the Schuylkill River. Then we will road walk by a very old cemetery which we can explore on our descent to the village of Port Clinton. Wear good hiking boots and carry water, sun screen and perhaps insect repellant. Lunch at the new Shoey Diner in Shoemakersville is optional after the hike.

1st MEET: 8:45 A.M. @ Redner’s Market parking lot off Rte. 61 in Leesport.
2nd MEET: 9:30 A.M. @ Port Clinton Playground at the end of Pine St. in Port Clinton

TELEPHONE: Al 610-929-9694 with questions.
