Mt Washington/Olympia Park

Hey BTB'ers, looking for a hike with a mix of hilly woods, urban streets, scenic views, and an optional refreshment break at the always excellent Grandview Bakery? There is an early out on the way back and one from the bakery if you want to skip it.

This hike starts at the Olympia Park trailhead opposite 500 Hallock St. Plenty of available parking in the lot or on the street.

First 2/3 in the woods, last 1/3 urban, including the refreshment stop. This hike is not for beginners or people recovering from a recent surgery.

Because this hike is on a weekday (Thurs), I have uncapped the number of attendees.

Be prepared for some mud, though the trails should be much drier than last time. Hiking boots, bug spray, and hiking sticks recommended. Bring sufficient water.
5-5.5 miles in 2 to 2.5 hours.
