Our group is perfect for those looking to explore the beautiful outdoors, get some exercise, and make new friends in Frederick, MD. We organize hikes of varying difficulty levels and distances, from easy nature walks to more challenging summit hikes.
Our members are in their 20's and 30's and come from diverse backgrounds, but we all share a love of nature and adventure. We welcome hikers of all skill levels, from beginners to experienced hikers, and encourage everyone to challenge themselves and try new trails.
In addition to hiking, we also organize social events and other outdoor activities, such as kayaking, picnics, and post hike breweries and winery meetups. These events provide an opportunity to connect with other outdoor enthusiasts in a relaxed, fun setting.

We prioritize safety and environmental responsibility on our hikes and ask that all members follow Leave No Trace principles to minimize our impact on the environment.

Singles Mingles Hike & Happy Hour @Catoctin Crk Nature park
Catoctin Creek Park & Nature Center, 2929 Sumantown Rd, Middletown, MD, USSingle like a Pringle? Mingle for Valentines Day on this ~3mile easy loop hike that is relatively flat, albeit one heart-pumping hill. Pace: 2-3mph.
The trek traverses Catoctin Creek Nature park, a nice slice of paradise with varying biomes & more! While wandering about the woodland the hike sporadically spurs to sweeping views of the stream.
Latter of the circuit arduously ascends the landscape before cutting through a clearing followed by a PINE STAND. After observing some historical ruins the hike terminates inside the Nature Center that FEATURES ALL SORTS OF CREATURES!
Happy Hour follows @Brookside Inn
