The Cynwyd Heritage Trail may seem like a stand alone trail, but since the opening of the Manayunk bridge, it connects to numerous trails on the other side of the river. The Trail also connects directly to Laurel Hill West Cemetery, Westminster Cemetery, Bala Cynwyd Playground, Cynwyd Station Park, and City Ave.

And it doesn’t end there! There are plans to extend the Trail from City Ave to the Mann Music Center and down to the Schuylkill Riverfront via the Connelly tract. For more information and project updates, see the Trail News and Future Improvements pages or email info@cynwydtrail.org.

Rain Location: Union Fire Association, 2nd Floor (149 Montgomery Ave, Bala Cynwyd, PA 19004)

Get ready for spooky season with a showing of "Hocus Pocus" (1993) under the stars. In this film, three 17th-century witches, hanged for their murderous crimes, are resurrected on Halloween in modern-day Salem by an unsuspecting boy, who must now figure out how to get them back in the ground. Feauring Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, Kathy Najimy, Omri Katz, and Thora Birch, this endearing Halloween classic will have you in stiches! The Friends of the Cynwyd Heritage Trail will be providing free popcorn and beverages. Just bring your own chair or blankets, find a spot in front of the screen, and enjoy the show!

Presented in collaboration with the Neighborhood Club of Bala Cynwyd, City Ave Development Corporation and Lower Main Line Rotary Club.
