Great trail. Several mountain bikers but all shared the trail pretty well.
we started out at the vacaris trailhead and then made our way down to the hermit's cave. lots to see, and taking the kids down to the Wissahickon to enjoy the water was a nice Midway break in an easy 1.5 mile round trip.
This trail is great for people seeking mostly flat road with some changes in elevation. It’s moderately trafficked but the trial is very well maintained. We took a dog and she was fine. I would recommend you really watch the trail markers as it can be easy to get off trail.
nice little Trail. Experienced some Wilderness, not much. Watch out for trail markers it's easy to get off Trail
Nice shorter trail that features a section of eastern white pines, some magnolias, and a nice stroll on Lincoln drive
