Overview

Meet at 9:45 Hike starts promptly at 10:00 Join us for a 5-6-mile moderate paced hike at picturesque Washington Crossing State Park NJ. We will hike on wooded, meadow and some paved trails. We'll do about 300 ft total elevation. There are creek crossings. The trail does have sections that can be a bit wet, muddy, and uneven, Wooded trails can be rocky. We will stop at the nature center for a break and snack. Bring sturdy footwear and water. The hike should be done around 12:00-12:30 so if you want after the hike is done, you can attend the Washington crossing reenactment at 1 pm. There is a $9.00 entrance fee you can purchase at the welcome center on PA side of Washington crossing park. (they told me bring cash for it) In addition to the crossing reenactment at 1 pm, special colonial-era activities and demonstrations in the Historic Village will offer a full day of family fun and learning. After the hike, you may want to have a chair in your car, if you wish to stay and watch them cross the river. Where we park is a pretty good area to watch them cross the river. Inclement weather may cancel hike. If doubtful, check the status of the hike on https://amcdv.org/activities/activities-calendar/ the day of the hike or contact the leader. Location Meet at the Washington Crossing Bridge Parking lot in NJ.
