RecreationLongswamp is home to Bear Creek Ski and Recreation Area, just south of Maple Grove. TransportationThe main east-to-west thoroughfare in Longswamp Township is Main Street, which is part of an unnumbered straight chain of roads connecting NE and central Berks as well as Topton with Lyons and Fleetwood. The mountains to the south prevent through north-to-south routes, so they start on Main Street and extend either north to U.S. Route 222, as do Farmington Road, Topton Road, and Valley Road, or south up the mountain. Longswamp Road, Mertztown Road, and Mountain Street lead east into Lehigh County.
