OPINION

NIX, Justice.

This is an appeal from an order of the Superior. Court reversing a custody award entered in favor of the maternal grandparents by the hearing court: The Superior Court ruled that custody should be awarded to the natural father and remanded the cause to the trial court to set appropriate visitation rights for the grandparents. The grandparents sought review which was granted by this Court and for the reasons that follow, we now reverse the order of the Superior Court, 266 Pa. Super. 583, 405 A.2d 1260, and reinstate the hearing court’s order.
