Riverview Park just keeps getting better! Thanks to Wildlands’ expanded tree and shrub plantings and a newly installed pollinator garden replacing mowed grass, the park is thriving. Nestled between the Lehigh River and D&L Trail in East Penn Township. For this event, we’ll hike southbound along the D&L Trail and explore the area around the Three Ponds, part of the Lehigh Gap Nature Center, while keeping an eye out for wildlife.
This easy, loop-hike is on level terrain and perfect for all ages.
Consider visiting the nearby Riverwalck Restaurant before or after the hike.
This event is part of the Get Out for Wellness series, made possible by funding from Lehigh Valley Health Network. Questions? Contact: Nicole Landis, Nlandis@wildlandspa.org.
