—————-
In 2026, we will be hiking the entire Orange Trail, from Bushnell’s Basin to Hamilton Rd, in 3 monthly hikes (April, July and October). Each hike is about 6 miles with some difficult sections. Hikers who complete all 3 hikes will be eligible for the Crescent Trail Finisher Patch. You can also earn the Finisher Patch by hiking the entire Orange trail on your own, either all at once or in sections as you see fit. Learn more about the Crescent Trail Challenge on our website.
We will meet at the White Brook Nature Area parking lot on Aldrich Rd on July 12th at 1:30 PM. Type “White Brook Nature Area” in your GPS. A town bus will transport hikers from the meeting location to the start of the hike where the Orange Trail meets Rt 250. We will then hike back to White Book.
‼️Please be prompt for the bus‼️
As always no reservation or sign-up is necessary, just show up!
Please note that we very rarely cancel due to weather and we ask that you not bring dogs on our guided hikes. Feel free to email us with any other questions.
Hope to see you there!
