A peaceful and easy hike to a wonderful view of the Delaware

Hike a short and easy path up a hill to the Goat Hill Overlook where you'll have a wonderful view of the Delaware River and New Hope, PA. Put 'Goat Hill Overlook' into your maps and you will be led right to the trailhead where you can easily park in the gravel parking lot or on the side of the parking lot in the grass. Follow the wide trail (there are several smaller trails that cut through this main trail) and eventually you will reach the top.

There are picnic benches to enjoy the views while snacking. It is a very family friendly environment.

Overall, no major...
