Eldora Park Walking Tours


Eldora Park Walking Tours:
Our seventh annual Eldora Park Walking Tours in 2023 are scheduled for Saturdays (12:00 noon) and Sundays (1:00 p.m.)April 15 and 16 and tentatively for April 29 and 30. The Smog Museum will close early on Saturdays at 1:00 p.m.

Our Eldora Park Walking Tours will start at the Smog Museum in Donora with a photo and newspaper-article presentation titled Eldora Park: The Mid-Mon Valley’s Trolley Park Retreat, 1904-1946. The presenter is Smog Museum curator and archivist Brian Charlton.
You can also see our two century-old Eldora Park panoramic photos, newly acquired in 2017 as donations from Mon Valley residents.
After the presentation, we'll drive the three miles to conduct the Walking Tour portion in the Eldora section of neighboring Carroll Township to the historic Wickerham farm, retracing the trolley line and ending up at the park site to describe, among the few remaining ruins, where the Park amenities once existed. One of the Wickerham descendants will accompany the walking tour to help share stories. 
The cost is $12 per person.
Allow at least 2.5 hours for the presentation and walking tour.
