What we’re about
Love to hike fast and do other adventurous stuff?
We hike some of the prettiest trails in Austin & the surrounding area at a relatively brisk pace ( usually about 3 mph depending on terrain)
Join our Facebook group www.facebook.com/groups/austinfasthikingandadventures/
We don't take many breaks. So if you are out of shape or have health issues this probably isn't your group. There are lots of groups that go slower.
But if you enjoy getting your heart rate up with some good conversation & pretty scenery then you've found the right group.
If Riverplace or something similarly challenging is your idea of a fun hike...without 3 granola bars and 4 rest breaks....come join us.
No attendance lists or crazy rules. If you signup for a hike and don't make it ....it's ok...we won't shame you or put you on a list....we wait 10 minutes after the posted event time and then we head out with whoever shows up.
All the events are dog-friendly (unless your dog is a psycho or has rabies)
Let's have fun. Make new friends. And get some exercise!
UPDATE - As of 3/22/25 We are using Pledge donations to try and cover the new crazy-high $300/yr Meetup organizer fees. Donate $1 or 2 if you can....or volunteer to lead a hike! Thanks everyone!
