Thursday Jan 30, 2020 - Schuylkill River Trail

DONNA will lead a shuttle hike of 5-6 miles walking along Schuylkill River Trail in the Birdsboro/Douglassville area. You may see red tailed hawks and/or bald eagles when we cross the river on the bridge and we’ll also have 2 crossings of route 724. Some hills, but mainly flat trail.

MEET 9:45 AM at Morlatton Village and park in lot across from White Horse tavern: 31 Old Philadelphia Pike, Douglassville, PA for group shuttle to park behind Matthew Brooks Building, near Schuylkill River trailhead for our walk back to Morlatton Village. If we want, we can also walk around Morlatton village and go to rivers edge. The bathrooms are not open behind Fork and Ale, so we'll have to use nature breaks. Optional lunch, eat afterwards at a cute new place that we can walk or drive to from Matthew Brooks Building parking for breakfast or lunch: Uncle Jacks Corner, 101 W First Street, Birdsboro has plenty of parking next door. Voted Best Lunch award for 2019, but my breakfast was good too!

NOTE: Snow & freezing temperatures or icy roads cancels. Rain at start time shortens hike and it may become in and out, or whatever we decide.

TELEPHONE: Leader Donna 610-385-6862 with questions.
