All Hikers
This is a new 5-mile hiking taking us through beautiful landscapes and varying terrain: the creekside Green Ribbon trail, an old mill site, the Highlands historic mansion, and the wonderful Willow Lake Farm trails.

Nature Program
Everyone
Have you ever wondered how to access the hard-to-find local trails? This hike will take us through the trail connections between the Green Ribbon Trail, Horseways Trails, Lower Gwynedd Township Trails and Whitpain Township Trails. The hike is 5 miles at a moderate pace (30 minute miles) for experienced hikers.
Join us (virtually) to help document the species on our preserves using iNaturalist. A BioBlitz is a community-science effort to record as many species within a designated location and time period as possible. We have designated 5 preserves that we are targeting to collect species information from, so grab your phone or camera and start observing.
Family Friendly
Get your feet wet as we explore the Wissahickon Creek in our Four Mills Preserve. We will search the creek for aquatic life and learn how they help us understand the health of the creek.
Tex Mex Connection is back hosting the 31st year of one of the top week night 5k runs in the area. Wissahickon Trails is proud to be the main beneficiary of this event with over one million dollars raised to protect and restore the land and waterways of the Wissahickon Valley over the past 21 years.
