Wissahickon Trail Gateway to Stairs
Along the Wissahickon Creek, Forbidden Drive, and Rex Ave. at some point you will come to a stone bridge. The bridge has a uniquely ancient stone gateway and winding staircase that leads up to a trail....
I haven't gone through the whole trail yet, but I am told there is a statue of an Indian Chief (Native American) of the Leni Lanape Nation there. But, Pennsylvania is so thick with foliage growth in summer that it couldn't be seen unless you took the trail.
It was so hot, and I didn't want to drop my camera equipment off the cliff, so I haven't braved the trail yet.
This spot seems to be an especially popular landmark to photograph. I've found SO many blogs, and photos of it posted on Flickr, often with poems of fantasy themes or captions. It really captures people' imagination! It's especially a popular subject for HDR fans.
This spot is at the foot of the bridge that crosses the creek. You will find benches to sit on also.
Off to the left is the actual bridge, but this walled part leads to other trails, and to the bank of the creek.
The edge of a wall
The ancient stairs winding upwards....
This is what you'll see at the top of the stairs...
The view from atop the stairs, looking down
The trail on the cliff above atop the stairs...

Side Angle: Wissahickon Magarge Creek Waterfalls
Just a few side angle shots of the waterfalls from one of the bench cliff perspectives.
What's great about this park is the many areas to view the sights & landmarks!
If you would like to see more photos of the waterfalls or of Wissakickon, check all my posts for August 2012.
