Lehigh Gap Nature Center Loop Hike
Hike trails on a Superfund Site that has been turned into a wildlife refuge.
Starting at the Osprey House, we will hike a loop that will include the L&E, Prairie Grass, Chestnut Oak, Double G, Arboretum, D&L, and Three Ponds Trails. Half of the loop is on foot paths with occasional rocks and elevation changes and the other half on rail trails. There are good views of Lehigh Gap and the former NJ Zinc Company West Plant. Bring water and a snack. Steady rain on morning of hike cancels. No calls on day of hike.
