The New York City Hiking Meetup Group

Welcome to The New York City Hiking Meetup Group, the oldest of all the hiking groups and outdoor group on Meetup.com founded in early 2004. We will organize many other outdoor fun activities such as hiking, camping, backpacking, biking, skiing, snowboarding, ice climbing, rock climbing, mountaineering, skating etc. anywhere near New York City. We also organize some great Off-the mountains social and networking as well as some good easy going party which cab be some simple after event drinking and dancing as well as others.

Please visit our sister groups The Next Adventure & Hiking (http://www.meetup.com/the-next-adventure/) and if you are more into a some advanced outdoor activities than just a day hikes. If you are interested in activities such as rock/ice climbing or ski/snowboarding activities, please visit Rock & Ice: http://www.meetup.com/Rock-n-Ice/

We will hike year around so you will need some winter hiking gear for our winter hikes and we will ask our hike leaders to check your gear for our winter hiking trip for your own safety.
