Thumbnails to Show You the Way

  1. Leaving the parking area, you will go onto a wide paved trail going straight ahead.
  2. The path follows along the Conestoga River on your right side.
  3. When you go under a road overpass, you are about halfway to the post.
  4. Be careful with children; there is a grassy area on your left that narrows as the path gets closer to South Conestoga Drive.
  5. You may notice that the trail is a hook shape, and you will soon come to the end of the path and find the post.
  6. Take a rest on the green bench and look for signs of wildlife in the trees and sky or ducks in the river.
  7. When you are ready, turn around and retrace your walk, with the river now on your left, and follow the trail back to the parking area.
