    Tips

    September 3, 2018

    The Wissahickon Park really is an amazing wilderness, tucked within the Philadelphia city limits! My latest find is the Houston Meadow, located atop the hills over Forbidden Drive. Reaching this meadow by bike is a little difficult (easier on foot... I had to hike-a-bike). But it’s worth it.

    Even at Wissahickon’s busiest times, the Houston Meadow is remarkably peaceful and quiet. Beautiful wildflowers. And I wouldn’t be surprised if this is a good place to watch birds and butterflies.
