The Campus

Established nearly 80 years ago by the Campus Club, the 2.2-mile Nature Trail encircling Haverford College’s campus provides a shady path for dog walkers, joggers and runners.

Short sections of Haverford's Nature Trail are being resurfaced for enhanced safety. The material is made from recycled truck tires, and looks similar to wood chips. Photo: Patrick Montero.
