5 to 5.5 moderately difficult miles
This loop hike in northern Chester County will encompass the perimeter of the main portion of Coventry Woods. We will climb to the ridge, go down the opposite side, then reclimb on our return.
1st Meeting place: 9:30 a.m. at the far front end of Boscov's East parking lot (4500 Perkiomen Ave) to shuttle. 2nd Meeting place: Coventry Woods. Pass the first parking area just over the hill when entering, turn left at the bottom of the hill, and park after the next left turn.
Directions for 1st meeting place: 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 used to be located at this intersection, not sure what is there today. Follow Unionville Rd. 2.1 miles past Temple Church and Shenkel Church. Turn right at St. Peter’s Road, then after about half a mile turn left into Coventry Woods (Fernbrook Lane is to the right).
Directions for 2nd meeting place: From Route 23, take St Peter's Rd through St Peter's Village and continue for about 4 miles on St Peter's Rd. When you see Fernbrook Lane to the left, turn right into Coventry Woods.
