National Take a Walk in the Park Day

1542 Mountain View Dr., Quakertown, PA 18951-5732

#NationalTakeaWalkintheParkDay
Free Event

Celebrate National Take a Walk in the Park Day by taking a stroll in our beautiful park! Join the park naturalist for a guided 4-mile, out-and-back walk along the lake. We will take an easy, ambling pace along a flat, paved section of trail, with stops for discussion about our plants, animals, features, and history.

We will meet in front of the ranger station at the Marina (can't miss it--this is the building you see in front of you as you drive down the hill into the Marina). We'll walk 2 miles to the Stover Mill site, then turn around and come back another 2 miles. There is a bathroom at the Marina, and we will be passing a port-a-potty near our turnaround point.

No registration required. Leashed, well-mannered pet dogs are welcome to join us. Sturdy shoes and a water bottle are recommended (we won't be passing any water fountains).

Questions? Contact: Rachel, Park Naturalist RNazaruk@pa.gov
