Parks & Nature
Awbury Arboretum Landscapes

More than 57 miles of trails wind through the 1,600-acre park, where hikers, bikers, horseback riders and runners pound it out on various terrains suited to their skills; Valley Green and Forbidden Drive are particular favorites. For anglers, the creek is a peaceful place to sink their lines, and rock climbers take on the challenge of Livezey Rock. The National Audubon Society designated the Wissahickon as an Important Birding Area, and birdwatchers flock to Carpenter’s Woods. 5 minute drive from your apartment, ask me for directions!
