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.

Hike: the 'Symphonic Scamper' @ Rachel Carson Conservation Pk
Rachel Carson Conservation Park, 22201 Zion Rd, Brookeville, MD, USThis scenic saunter is a 4.2mile easy hike that is relatively flat with uneven terrain, albeit an arduous ascent towards the end. Pace: 3mph. The trek feels as if conducted by a symphony-- A playful sonata of opening notes to mark the beginning MYSTICAL MEADOW meander. Then an andante of tranquility traversing a becomingly overgrown woodland wonderland that crosses seasonal rivulets while at times paralleling the harmonious HAWLINGS RIVER, featuring a scherzo at the 'Conductor's Rock'. Eventually the hike crescendos, climaxing with a beguiling BOULDER FORMATION that offers scrambling. An Autumnal amble!
