Batona is assigned a section of the Batona Trail, Horse Shoe Trail, and Appalachian Trail that we work on several times a year. The unique aspect of our club is that we always start from a location accessible to public transportation in Philadelphia. This enables folks without cars to go hiking. Then from the assembly point the leader forms up car pools and we go off to the trail head, which may be anywhere from the Poconos to Jersey shore, etc. The hikers reimburse the driver a small amount for gas.
Hikers frequently stop at a country diner after a long hike.
And of course there is an annual dinner for all to get together and share the fun and memories of the past year.
