🥾 Forest Hike, New Friends & Lunch in Bellingham 🌲

Join us for a beautiful day of hiking, conversation, and good food as we explore the stunning Stimpson Family Nature Reserve and then enjoy lunch together afterward.

Stimpson is one of Whatcom County’s hidden gems, featuring towering old-growth trees, lush ferns, peaceful wetlands, boardwalks, and beautiful forest scenery. We’ll take a relaxed pace, stop for photos, and enjoy getting to know one another along the way. The main loop is approximately 3 miles with moderate elevation gain, making it a great choice for those looking for a little more adventure while still being approachable for most hikers.

After the hike, we’ll head to El Suenito Brewing Company for lunch, where we can continue the conversation over great food and drinks in a relaxed setting.

Whether you’re new to the group or have attended previous events, this is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the outdoors, meet new friends, and spend time with friendly people who enjoy getting out and exploring.
