MERILEE will lead a hike in Warwick County Park. We'll take the Horse Shoe Trail onto the Charcoal Trail and then back to the Horse Shoe Trail along French Creek. These forests provided much of the raw timber used to make charcoal for the region's iron furnaces. We'll go to PA's only surviving Fink Truss, a pedestrian footbridge built in 1870. This hike will be 5-6 miles with a difficulty level of 4. There are 4 moderate hills. Lunch option is The Inn at St. Peter's Village.
MEET: 9:30 AM at the parking lot for Warwick County Park, 382 County Park Rd., Pottstown, Pa. 19465
DIRECTIONS: 222 S to 422 E to I-176 E exit toward Morgantown. Take exit 2 toward PA-10N/PA-23 E. Turn left onto PA-10 N /PA 23 E for 9.3 mi. turn right onto County Park Rd., turn left into Warwick County Park.
