Meet Up Details for Spring Equinox Hike & Brunch This Sunday


Hi Reader,

I’m so excited you’ll be joining us for our Spring Equinox Hike! This will be a refreshing way to welcome the new season, connect with nature, and enjoy great company.

We're kicking it off with an oldie but goodie!

📍 Meet-Up Location: Valley Green Inn (Valley Green Rd, Philadelphia, PA 19118). We're hiking the Wissahickon Gorge North Loop.
Meet-Up Time: 9:30AM (please arrive a few minutes early)
🥾 Hike Details: The level of difficulty is moderate. Please wear hiking boots or shoes with traction. The total loop is 5.2 miles. We will have two guides. There will be a shorter option for those who request one.

Expected Weather: 60 degrees. There is a chance of rain later that evening. We hike rain or shine.

Before we start, we’ll take a moment to set our intentions for the season and get energized. After the hike, you’re invited to join us for brunch at Breakfast Boutique! (Brunch is a separate expense, but it’ll be a fun way to continue the good vibes.)

Let me know if you have any questions. Call Elethia at (215) 821-8827, if you get lost or have questions. PLEASE leave me a message if I do not answer. Signals can be shady on the trails. 😆

I can also drop a pin if you have an iPhone. You can also download the Alltrails app for maps.

Looking forward to seeing you there! 🌿✨

Be well my friend.
