The 5.75-mile long guided tour will explore the most northern reaches of the Canal with a stop for a gourmet pizza lunch at Sette Luna in the City of Easton. The walk will begin at 10 a.m. at Wy-HitTuk Park. The entrance drive is located at 575 South Delaware Drive (Route 611), Easton, PA 18042. Walkers will begin their adventure with a glimpse of the scenic “Monet” bridge and then follow the towpath northward as it hugs the Delaware River to the Forks of the Delaware. At the Forks, the Lehigh River flows into the Delaware River and feeds the Delaware Canal. Learn about the Lehigh River dam and why a fish ladder was built at this location. The Canal bypass, guard lock, wicket shanty and weigh lock will all be on view, as well as the stone arch opening to the Morris Canal in New Jersey. From the Forks, hikers will cross the bridge into Easton and head into town for a gourmet lunch at Sette Luna. The menu will include Caesar salad and a generous variety of gourmet pizzas and beverages.
After lunch, hikers will head back to Wy-Hit-Tuk Park, enjoying homemade cookies along the way.. A donation of $25 is requested, and reservations are required. Please call 215-862-2021 or email friends@ fodc.org no later than March 17. If the weather is uncooperative, participants will not be walking, but will meet at Sette Luna at noon for lunch and conversation. The Friends of the Delaware Canal is an independent, not-for-profit organization working to restore, preserve, and improve the Delaware Canal and its surroundings. Its primary goals are to ensure that the Canal is fully watered from Easton to Bristol and that the towpath trail is useable over its entire length. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Carriage House Art Show & Sale in Tamanend Park on1255 Second St Pike Southampton, Pa 18966.
