Schuylkill River/ Elverson Walking Club - Saturday July 14, 2007

5.5 Miles

We will join with members of the Elverson Walking Club for a 5.5 mile loop hike along both sides of the Schuykill River, between routes 113 & 29. If the river should be extra high or the banks muddy, our alternate hike will be out and back on the 2.5 mile Canal Towpath in Monte Clair. Lunch afterwards at the Fitzwater Station.

Meeting Place: 9:00 am at the Lock 60 parking area which can be reached via an approach road to the west that is on the route 29 bridge over the Schuykill, just north of Phoenixville...look for a sign directing you to Lock 60.
