Interested in taking a short, long, or somewhere in the middle length hike/stroll in western North Carolina? Look no further!!! Everything from a quick (3-4 hour) hike to a full day of hiking to overnight backpacking trips, we'll try it all! Check us out and experience the pristine and amazing wilderness (and our members) of western North Carolina!!! Everyone is welcome, beginner or expert, 2 legs or 4, young and old. We will meet once during the week to plan the excursions and take 1 or 2 hikes on the weekends. Suggestions are GREATLY appreciated! So, come on in, interact, enjoy yourself, and we'll see you on the trail!
This group is run on donations. We appreciate any contribution you can make to our group to ensure that everyone gets a chance to hike and enjoy beautiful WNC. We are currently working on a benefit package for our donors that will include discounts at local hiking outfitters, restaurants, and social activities.
