Old York is participating in Jane’s Walk, which is a global festival of free, volunteer-led walking conversations inspired by community activist Jane Jacobs.
The 90-minute York walk will take participants along the York River, an area rich in history. The route will include historic landmarks, such as: Historic New England’s Sayward Wheeler house, the Wiggly Bridge, and Old York’s Hancock Warehouse, Elizabeth Perkins House, and boathouse. Crossing the bridge on the return, walkers will be able to view Mark Twain’s summer home.
Preservation architect and former state representative Deane Rykerson will lead the walk, assisted by Ken McAuliffe of Old York.
Bring comfortable shoes, water, and binoculars if you have them.
The walk begins and ends at:
