This is a 8-9 mile loop hike that will have us climbing 1,100'+ with multiple beautiful views of the Delaware River culminating with a view across to Mount Tammany. Lunch at the top of the climb will be followed by a ridge walk along the Appalachian Trail to Totts Gap with a gradual road descent to a woodland trail back to the parking lot. The initial climb is steep in places with some stream crossings and therefore sturdy hiking boots and trekking poles are recommended. Steady rain or thunderstorms will cancel. Bring at least 2L of water plus lunch and snacks.
