A Hike at Mt. Airy Woodland Trail

with Carol Hillestad

Sunday July 11th at 2pm

As part of our efforts to incorporate natural history in our programs, PHS explored the Mt. Airy Woodland Trail in Paradise Township on Sunday, July 11. Carol Hillestad led our hike. The trail is a one mile "lollipop loop" along Forest Hills Run. The trail is mostly easy, wide and fairly well groomed, but this is the Poconos so there are stretches of roots and rocks, and some up & down hill areas. At the beginning of the trail, wide stepping stones cross the creek. This hiking area is beautiful and shady, with many views of the creek and large stands of native rhododendrons. Parking for the trail is on the north side of Woodland Road, across from Mt. Airy Casino.
