Enchanted Backcountry Hike Between 9 and 13 Miles
Details
Pre Hike:
Get a day pass for your car before the hike. They are available one month in advance and guarantee admission to the park. A state parks pass covers the entire car so register for the largest number of possible passengers.
The Hike:
This is our first chance to explore the new back country expansion of the park.
There is a loop trail wiht three out and back extensions. Weather permitting we will do two of them as a group and leave the third for another trip.
About HATs and our hikes
https://www.hatsandmore.org/
HATs organizers are not guides nor do we have any special training. We are here to come up with hiking ideas and get the hike started. Expect the same risks and take the same precautions you would if hiking alone, including the fitness level to make long hikes. Then enjoy the hike among friends.
We hike about 3 MPH. This is faster than many walking groups.
Trail Safety:
Hiking is supposed to be fun. If you don't feel well or can't keep up, tell someone right away. Contact the hike leader. We can help get you off the trail.
