The Wissahickon Creek is a treasure to many Philadelphians and visitors to the area, who are searching for an escape to nature, providing a stunning green space for hiking, biking, and fishing. Devil’s Pool, in particular, is one of the most beautiful places in the park – an iconic spot along the Cresheim Creek, just before it flows into the Wissahickon. Due to the popularity of this location, an excess of trash is sadly left behind by many of its visitors. This not only looks terrible but is dangerous to the fish and other wildlife that live in our watershed. Please come out to help us to clean up this area, and to preserve the natural beauty of the Wissahickon Valley.
