Hawk Mountain · Blue Mountain

A short, technical loop from Hamburg: PA-61 along the Schuylkill, the climb up Hawk Mountain Rd from Drehersville to the sanctuary, then down through Eckville and Albany and back via PA-143 and Lenhartsville. The climb is steep and tight; it's for riders comfortable handling a bike on grades, not for someone's first outing. From September to November the hawk migration fills the sanctuary and parking is hard to find.
