Cascading
waters along the Kittatinny Ridge, also called Blue Mountain, are frozen in
harmony in midwinter beauty at Lehigh Gap along the Delaware and Lehigh
National Heritage Corridor (D&L Trail).
The
Lehigh Gap in Slatington, Pennsylvania, is a crossroads where the Lehigh Gap
Nature Center’s trails connect two historic trails – the Appalachian Trail and
the D&L Trail.
The
Appalachian Trail, a foot path, follows the ridge on both sides of the Lehigh
Gap, running 1,245 miles south to Georgia and 930 miles north to Maine. Running
from Wilkes-Barre to Bristol, the D&L Trail passes through the Lehigh and
Delaware rivers and their canals in Pennsylvania.
