Hiking in Wissahickon Valley Park – Philadelphia’s Scenic West Suburban Escape

Hiking in Wissahickon Valley Park – Philadelphia’s Scenic West Suburban Escape
Prabha ShankarPrabha Shankar
A nice place but mostly not for family who wants a quite places on weekends. Parking was easier for us but the lot is small and can be tough to get spot on busy weekends. DON’T Park on the perpendicular edges of the parking lot and will be ticketed. Walking to the pool from parking lot is about ~ 1 mile. Stroller can be taken till 1/2 mile and then you have to walk on unpaved , rocky , trail. Trail to pool is doable by most. a lot of people were partying with loud music (I enjoyed the atmosphere ). Some scattered trash and few people are leaving the trash at the area. Water was not so clear and it becomes muddy at places. Streams depth are not so deep may me max 7-9 feet at places. Being trash cover with you if you are planning to do a picnic. Officially there is no cooking , grilling , no alcohol , smoking etc . But you could see all the above happening at the area. I would not come again to this place, unless the safety of the parked car is taken care. ( haven’t personally met any situation but could see it can happen). less water during our visit.

The only reason it is not a 5 star is because this place alot of people come and parking becomes hard to get and their is a sign that says not to leave valuables in the car. Make sure to bring some type of floating device because I myself have helped saved someone from drowning more then once. The pool of water is atleast 9 feet but it is generally all around 7 feet deep. It is small and it does get packed especially in the summer. Other then that make sure you know how to swim or have along stick around to help pull a friend or person from drowning.

What was once a beautiful scenic work of art formed by nature. Careless, disrespectful, in considerate humanity has ruined.

Being proactive can help. Take box of trash bags. Pick up a bag or two worth of trash. Offer others a bag on the promise of taking it out. Even if they don't at least it will be easier to take out later.

Cleaning up the area will indeed take work, but the amount of people who see this message will hopefully take the advice given here.

I am Native American of the Linna Lenape/Nanacoke tribe. So it hits even closer to home for me.

The water has swirls of oilly sun screen floating on the top of the water. If you didn't put any on before hand you will still be covered from head to toe when you get out. Water health is poor.

Loud conflicting music. Un watched kids and dogs. Blaten disrespect form patrons.

If you have former injuries or are unstable on uneven ground. This is not the place to visit. The whole area is covered in large unsteady rocks. This area is not handicapped accessible at all. If you have any form of sensory issues also not the place to go.

I wish I had better things to say I wish I was able to fully enjoy myself vs hyper fixation on picking up trash. Being over stimulated/over...

After living in Pennsylvania for long years, I was always looking for a place like this. Now that I found it, now I have a favorite place to take my son for a blast and we've been coming here and I love the crystal clear water. Please let's be considerate and clean up after ourselves. Let's not take Devil's Pool for granted because our GOD created this for all of us. Let's keep Devil's Pool clean like our Bed. Oh, I almost forgot, i came here on july 3, 2022., it was the weekend and i received a 41 Dollars Ticket for parking on the side of the Road. The parking area was full and i did not have anywhere to park. If you wanna have fun at Devil's Pool on the weekend and do not mind paying 41 Dollars for parking on the side of the road, you're it 😆 and I'am not wasting 41 Dollars anymore. For 41 Dollars I can buy some pizza's 🍕 and some Buffalo wings. Finally, if you are a good friend, leave and take your intoxicated friend with you ASAP if she/he is causing problem.Let's leave everyone here in peace. And do not bring that kind of friend here with you anymore if you really want to have a great time@Devil's...
