Hike to the Pulpit and PinnacleClassic loop hike to the Pulpit and Pinnacle
This is a counter-classic loop hike to the Pinnacle and Pulpit Rock. What better way to enjoy the crisp winter air than by climbing a mountain? This is a 9 mile loop hike, starting at the Hamburg Reservoir parking lot, climbing first to the Pinnacle and then following the ridge to Pulpit Rock for spectacular views of the Lehigh Valley from both locations. This is not a beginner's hike due to the 1000' ascent and very rocky terrain. If there is snow on the ground, microspikes or other traction devices will be mandatory. Bring a least 2L of water and lunch / snacks. Steady rain or snow cancels.
