Wissahickon Valley Park

Wissahickon Valley Park is a large urban park located near the Chestnut Hill and West Mt. Airy neighborhoods in Philadelphia. There is a really nice trail system here that runs along the Wissahickon Creek and the area is popular for hikers, runners, cyclists, and boulderers. One of the highlights of the park is a statue of Teedyuscung which was sculpted by John Massey Rhind.
