LORIMER PARK

Fall Foliage Along Pennypack Creek

The canopies at this natural wonderland in Abington are huge, engulfing visitors in color this time of year. Stroll Lorimer Park's 2.5-mile trail that once held the Fox Chase-Newtown rail line, recently reclaimed for recreation.

A favorite photography spot is Knight Covered Bridge. One of the smallest covered bridges you will see, the 17-foot span is painted bright red, causing it to pop against the soft shades of the autumn leaves.
