Event Status: WAITLIST
You are signing up to walk on Saturday February 1 @ 10am from Penn's Landing towards The Navy Yard.
IMPORTANT NOTE for this walk: In the case of insufficient registration, this group will merge with Group A & proceed counter-clockwise towards Bridesburg
Please register individually for EACH segment of the Winter 2025 Walk Around Philadelphia that you plan to attend.
About this segment:
This segment includes an option to meet early for coffee at the Waterfront Café at 9am and an option to end with snacks in the Navy Yard.
This segment is estimated to take roughly 10 miles and 5-7 hours. The terrain may include mostly sidewalks & roads, with potential for big roundabout detour adventures and/or bits of bushwhacking.
Your mileage, terrain and endpoint may vary depending on choices made by your group; you can always choose to walk a partial segment.
Registration fees & contributions:
Walk event fees cover some of the administrative and logistical costs associated with facilitating the walk and helping make this experience more accessible to others. Please contribute the amount that feels accessible to you.

If you would like to make a donation to a nonprofit to support our continued development of Walk Around Philadelphia and help provide stipends for participants facing financial hardship, you can do so via our 501c3 fiscal sponsor Fractured Atlas (and we would be most grateful!)
