Overview

Love reading? Love hiking? Love chatting about books with other hikers? Read a book, any book, that is set in Philadelphia or the surrounding area. You can find a list of suggested books on Amazon or check out some of the following: Such a Fun Age - Kiley Reid We are not like Them - Christine Pride and Jo Piazza The Dutch House - Ann Patchett Long Bright River - Liz Moore Silver Linings Playbook - Matthew Quick We will walk on both Forbidden Drive and some of the wooded trails around Andorra. If you can't get to (or finish) a book, come anyway! You might get a few good book ideas and you will always have a good chat with other AMC hikers. Meet at the kiosk on the corner of Forbidden Drive and Northwestern Ave (near Northwestern Stables). Rest rooms available 1/4 mile into the hike. The walk will be moderate pace and there will be some hills. Steady rain cancels - check status on Outdoors.org before 11am the day of the hike or contact leader. Dress in and carry layers as needed for your comfort. Bring water and snacks as needed. Please let leader know if you have any medical conditions (allergies, etc) that could affect your ability to complete the hike. Leader Lisa Kleiman ([email protected])
