Join us for a hike in Susquehanna State Park in Havre De Grace, Maryland.

Between the months of November and February, about 150 American Bald Eagles gather at the base of the Conowingo Dam to fish, built nests and make baby eagles. All along the hike, we will be able to watch American Bald Eagles grab fish out of the river and then if we are lucky, we will see the birds fight over the fish.

We will walk along an old train track path that was converted to a hiking / biking trail along the Susquehanna River at Harve De Grace. It is a flat trail that goes from near the bridge over Rt. 95 to the Conowingo Dam on the Susquehanna River. The Path is 4-5 miles to the dam and then 4-5 miles back to the car (9-10 miles round trip walk). When the hike is finished, we can eat /have a beer in the tiny town of Harve De Grace on the Chesapeake Bay. The path is flat and easy.
