History Hike at the Daniel Boone Homestead
Saturday, October 26, 2024 • 9:00am

The Daniel Boone Homestead Associates invite you to join us for our History Hike as we explore the history of the Daniel Boone Homestead and its historic and cultural landscapes. The hike is approximately one and a half miles and is rain or shine. Please wear sturdy walking shoes and bring water. There is no fee for this program. Friendly dogs are welcome to join on the hike and must be kept on a leash at all times. Animals are
not permitted in the historic buildings. The program is presented and funded by The Daniel Boone Homestead Associates. The Daniel Boone Homestead is the birthplace of the famed frontiersman, born in 1734. The Boone House,constructed in three stages throughout the eighteenth century, is a 10-room stone structure fully furnished to the
period and situated on 579 acres of rolling countryside. The Daniel Boone Homestead is located halfway between Reading and Pottstown, one mile north of Rt. 422 near Baumstown. The Homestead is owned by the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission, and daily historic operations are run by the Daniel Boone
Homestead Associates, a local, nonprofit organization. If you would like more information or would like to make a donation, please contact the Daniel Boone Homestead at 610-582-4900.
