Awesome family play ground park. Unique, clean, fun, safe, and I could go on and on. Perfect spot…read morefor attempting to tire out Grandchildren!!! They LOVE it and so do I. At first I didn't like that I could not keep a keen watch on my Grandkids while sitting on the benches, which surround the perimeter, because you can't see over to the other side. Instead of relaxing while the kids play, I found myself running and following the kids around. Maybe that is better anyway. The two toilet out houses are most convenient. Just love this playground.

Really nice community park. The playground is pretty big and the equipment is in very good shape…read more It's good for kids up to age 9 or 10. The area is well kept and beautiful. There a walking trail that meanders around the park. If you want to have lunch or dinner outside, there are lots of picnic tables which are typically clean. There's also a bathroom on site, but recently it's been closed due to Covid-19, not sure if it's opened up again. Parking lot is next to the school. Plenty of spaces available. Overall great park. Five stars.

Deer, rabbits and a variety of birds are frequently present. What I really like about the park is when the sunlight hits the trees just so, it's really beautiful, and, the multiple little hills make for a good leg workout. The main path is only about a mile and a quarter around, so a couple of goes and you've done a few miles.

It's nice. It's okay…read more It's not the prettiest park I've ever been to, but nice for a stroll. Two items of note while we covered 10,000 steps on this day: A few beautiful old homes still on park grounds. I don't recall any signage describing why and what they were. A nice renovated covered bridge. The park itself lacked much signage after the first 10 minutes of walking. We had no idea what direction to go to get back to the main parking lot, which was frustrating.

This pocket park in the Borough of Newtown is an activity center for the entire 2,800 population of…read morethis burg. Once ignored and overgrown after the departure of the Newtown Rail Line across Lincoln Avenue, it has been reborn with playground for kids, grassy field for movies at night, and the renovation of the fountain in 2018, in honor of Thomas Linton. The central attraction is the fountain with a cornerstone dated 1917. It was originally designed for drinking water for "man and beast," with a long low trough for horses, that people were welcome to share. The acceptance of the automobile ended the intended functionality of the polished engraved marble, but the true death knell was the closing of the railroad from Philadelphia to its terminus across Lincoln, where there was a small station. Today, most of the track is either overgrown or torn up, although periodically concerned public spirited citizens try to restart the rail service, until they realize that SEPTA has no interest in spending the money and the project would be so expensive as to make private contributions inadequate. A shame because a modern facility with efficient transportation would be successful for business commuters, tourists and train lovers. It would also make this part of the Borough return to a level of economic vitality it has not seen in the 60 years since. Nonetheless, the park is lovely and used by locals year round, but especially in warm weather when the fountain flows and movies attract scores of people with lawn chairs and blankets to hang out together at night. Newtownians would rather keep this community treasure a secret, and that is their choice, but I for one would rather recreate the historic locale that gave this corner of town its original purpose.

Intro to Rock Climbing with Valley to Summit on September 18, 2022…read more This was my second trip to Chickies Rock with VTS and it was wonderful! There were only 5 of us, so plenty of time to climb. Our Guide, Bob, was so patient, engaged and informative. I learned a lot of great things that I had not known before about clothing, ropes and technique. Bob was so patient with me and was there with his " green pointer" to help me over the tough spots. You should know that I am 74 years old and tho I have climbed indoors for a few years, my stamina was not that of the youngsters who were there! Nonetheless, it was a great time! I highly recommend Valley to Summit, this being my 3 rd trip with them. They Rock!

Absolutely amazing professional guides!!…read more I hired this company to guide me through the winters treacherous water fall trails of Ricketts Glen that is normally closed off for hikers that don't have the explicitly specific required safety gear for winter hikes which this company provides. The guides were patient and helpful with the small group in getting gear on and going over all the safety equipment. They were never impatient with anyone and insanely kind. You could tell the guides truly enjoyed bringing everyone out to this amazing trail at Ricketts Glen State Park. I wasn't sure what to expect but OMG it was worth the money spent to have these guys/gals guide me through the trails. I took tons of pictures and was never rushed at all while taking in the views and photos. This company comes highly recommended amongst the hiking community even out of state.
