The Perkiomen Trail spans a 19 mile corridor from Green Lane Park in northern Montgomery County PA to Valley Forge National Historic Park. From there, you can pick up the Schuylkill River Trail which goes all the way to the Philadelphia Art Museum.
It is a wonderful multi-use trail adjacent to the Perkiomen Creek and is intended for year round recreational activities.
One of our favorites, Scott and I could run or bike for miles on this trail and never tire of the scenery. These photos were taken today around the Spring Mountain Trail Head.

As summer winds down, there is still a lot of fun things to do in Montgomery County, PA. A great place for the adventurous of spirit is zip lining at Spring Mountain Ski Area in Spring Mount, PA.
Spring Mountain has created a canopy tour called the Full Monty that runs through the woods. You take a chair lift to the top of the mountain and then zip line from platform to platform with each zip getting longer and faster. You also must cross several challenging rope bridges (think Survivor) and perform two rappels. The entire course takes a few hours and several guides will ensure a safe and fun-filled time as you "fly" through the woods.
Shorter easier versions of the course called Vertigo and Easy Rider can be done if you don't wish to do the Full Monty.
For those with nerves of steel, you can do the entire course at night, called the Heart of Darkness Uncut. For more information on Zip Lining and Spring Mountain Canopy Tours.
To round out your exhilarating day, other fun activities at Spring Mountain include a 45-foot rock climbing wall and geo-caching.
Spring Mountain also offers the Tiki Bar which is a really fun outdoor restaurant and bar with great views of the mountain. The Tiki Bar has a huge outdoor grill where you grill your own dinner. They offer steaks, chicken, seafood and kabobs. Every meal comes with a salad, bread, and baked potato. For those 21 and over, you have to try at least one of the Tiki Bar's world famous Hurricanes!
So while the weather is still good, make a trip out to Spring Mountain Ski Area. There are tons to do besides ski. And in a few weeks, they will transform the place once again into Scream Mountain, offering a haunted house and haunted hayride!
So grab the family or better yet, get a group of families together and GO!
