Saturday August 1, 2020 - Monocacy Hill Hike

 5 Miles - Moderately Difficult

Join our group as we hike through some of the well-marked trails of the Monocacy Hills 428 acres. We will be going down to the creek and up to the peak with beautiful views of the valley. Hiking boots and poles are recommended as the climb is a bit rocky.Lunch after is an option at the Yellow House Hotel - but reservations are required (and it's a bit pricey) so you will be asked when you arrive for the hike if you are going to lunch.

1st Meeting place: 9:15am to car pool at Amity Area Community Pool parking lot.  (There are several parking lots in the athletic complex, meet at the parking lot at the back of the pool, near the gravel road to the lower field)

GPS: 55 Amity Park Rd., Birdsboro

2nd Meeting place: 9:30am at Geiger Rd.nparking lot. There is very limited parking so car pool if you can.

GPS: 54 Geiger Rd., Douglassville
