SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, MEDIUM HIKE (5-6 MILES): This hike is at one of the beautiful southern
Lancaster Conservancy Nature Preserves. We will hike the perimeter of the park, also explore Climbers Run and
streams with numerous small waterfalls. These trails are easy, mostly flat with two small hills. The foot path along the stream is rocky. There is a surprise at the top of the first hill that was left by a past homeowner. There is a stream crossing so bring waterproof shoes if desired. Bring plenty of water, lunch, snacks and comfortable hiking shoes. We will relax at the Nature Center picnic tables at end of hike. Come out to enjoy and appreciate this gorgeous hidden gem which will be worth the trip to Lancaster County in September! Trout Run Nature Preserve is down the road if anyone wishes to explore another mile trail before heading home to York.
