Join us for an unforgettable weekend of hammock camping, biking, hiking, and stargazing in the great outdoors!

The purpose of this hammock camping trip is to introduce campers to the basics of hammock camping and help them feel confident setting up and sleeping in a hammock overnight. Participants will learn about gear, setup techniques, and tips for a comfortable and safe experience in the great outdoors.

Campers can set up hammocks or tents and enjoy a full weekend of adventure, including a guided bike ride and a Day Hike & Creek Walk led by the Goombay Hike Crew. In the evenings, wind down with games, campfire conversations, and late-night fun. This is the perfect escape to connect with nature, build community, and make lasting memories—you don’t want to miss it!

We do ask that everyone check in and set up during the day. We will have staff available to assist with tent and hammock set ups

FAQ
WHAT LEVEL IS THIS HIKE: This is a Intermediate Level hike which is suitable for all level hikers. The terrain is mostly flat but has several rolling hills.

CAN BEGINNERS ATTEND THIS HIKE: Yes, this is a beginner friendly hike.

WHAT IS THE PACE OF THE GROUP: The group pace will be moderate and may break up into two pace groups (fast or slow). We will have hike leaders mixed within the group and we will stop periodically for water and rest.

WHAT TYPE OF HIKE IS THIS: This is a 4-5 mile loop trail, which begins at one location and ends where we began.

ARE PETS ALLOWED: Yes

IS PARKING FREE: Parking is free but we suggest you arrive as early as possible to secure a good parking space

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR: A good rule of thumb is to dress comfortably and in layers. Dressing in layers will allow you to stay warm when your cold and as you warm up, you can take off layers and not over heat. It's going to be warm to hot, so we strongly suggest cool moisture wicking clothing, a hat, sturdy hiking boots or trail sneakers (your choice), wool socks, a small day back, trekking poles (optional) and plenty of water.
