Thursday Aug 2, 2018 - Coventry Woods

Expecting a hot summer day, Les will lead a hike approaching 5 miles in Coventry Woods. This will be a shaded walk with a bit of roads. There will be hills as we climb to the ridge and descend the back side.

MEET: 10:00 A.M. @ Fernbrook (main) lot at Coventry Woods

DIRECTIONS #1: Take Rte. 724 east from Birdsboro. About three quarters of a mile past River Bridge Rd (the road/bridge leading to Douglassville.), turn right onto Unionville Rd. All Type Fence is located at this intersection. Follow Unionville Rd. 2.1 miles past Temple Church and Shenkel Church. Turn right at St. Peter’s Rd., then after about half a mile turn left into Coventry Woods (Fernbrook Lane is to the right). Parking is just over the crest of the hill.

DIRECTIONS #2: From Route 23, take St Peter's Rd. through St Peter's Village and continue for about 4 more miles on St Peter's Rd. When you see Fernbrook Lane to the left, turn right into Coventry Woods. NOTE: Route 23 is expected to be closed eastbound from 401 to 345. Detour via 401 and 345.

TELEPHONE: Leader Les 610-323-1703 with any questions.
