Overview

Hike Plan This is an "easy" rated (shorter), but fast moderate to brisk paced 6-mile walk in urban Phoenixville, PA. We walk established trails and wide gravel/paved paths, mostly along the Phoenixville Canal. We will head into downtown Phoenixville on some evenings. It will be dark; Bring a light or headlamp. Location The meeting place for this hike is at GPS coordinates 40.129247, -75.483021. The street address is 987 Port Providence Road, Phoenixville, PA 19460. Some maps have "Port Province Trail Head - Schuylkill River Trail." There is a bathroom at the parking area we use. We leave shortly after 6:30 PM. Notes On-line registration in the AMC system is not required for this hike; While I find Meetup convenient, I welcome and reserve spaces for AMC members from the Outdoor Connector website (go to https://www.outdoors.org/ or https://amcdv.org/ then select the contact the hike leader option.) (Meetup is: https://www.meetup.com/Appalachian-Mountain-Club-Delaware-Valley-Chapter/ ). Update your RSVPs if your plans change. All participants will need to agree to and sign a paper AMC legal waver sheet just prior to the hike. Please update your RSVP when your plans change since I will try to limit the group size to around 18 using waitlists in Meetups. You may be pulled in to "Going" the day of the hike, so take your name off the waitlist too if you decide not to go. If you are unable to cancel in Meetup, just Meetup message me or leave a comment, Thanks! Dogs on a leash are allowed. Lights required for your dog too. Please tell the group in advance using meetup comments.
