Full Moon Towpath Trek, in New Hope, PA

Full Moon Towpath Trek, in New Hope, PA

Venture along the towpath at twilight to see the full moon rise above the Delaware River.

We will meet in the rear parking area adjacent to the Canal at the Canal Path Park located at 2520 River Rd, New Hope, PA 18938.

State Park Educator Katie Martens and FODC Executive Director, Michael Ginder will lead a moderately-paced (the colder it is, the faster we go), 3.5-mile round-trip walk through the historic village of New Hope with a stop at the Locktender’s House.

On the way south from Canal Park to Lock 11 in New Hope, we’ll listen for owls and keep our eyes open for other nocturnal critters. At the Locktender’s House we will stop and warm up with a hot beverage and cookies.

The walk will be held weather permitting. It will be canceled in the event of rain, total cloud cover, or hazardous conditions. Check for a Go/No Go message that will be emailed and posted on our website by noon on December 3rd.

A $10 contribution is requested for the “Full Moon” Towpath Trek, which may be paid on the day of the event.

Simply fill out our form to reserve your spot. Attendance is limited to 25 people.

Let's walk together!
