There is a classic small town in Berks Co., Pennsylvania named Hamburg
where you can find a hike to a mountain overlook
view of the beautiful countryside below.

The area is popular with day hikers
but because it overlaps part of the Appalachian Trail
you'll find serious through hikers as well.
Our choice was to reach The Pinnacle Side Trail
via the Blue Blazed Trail.
Near the start is the Hamburg Reservoir.
Hubby always takes the lead...always.
A Pinnacle Tradition...
stack your rock on the pile.
Our friend, and trail guide, Marty
checks out the Appalachian Trail Log.
Usually when we hike with Marty,
something exciting happens,
like when my husband fell in the waterfall.
Read that humorous account here.
But today's hike was uneventful.
How nice!
