Tri-State Hiking Club

This hike is also posted with Dayton Hikers meetup group.

We will hike 4.5 miles (3.1-3.3 mph) with an optional additional 2.5 miles for those who want more. We will pass by the parking lot at 4.5 miles. This is a faster pace (18-19 minute mile).

If it is cold, we will warm up quickly once we start moving—check the weather and dress accordingly.

It is usually muddy 😕 but still a great park so please wear proper footwear and you might want to bring your poles.

I will hike in light rain but not in pouring rain or if storms are imminent.

Please check here for any updates before heading out.
If your plans change please update your RSVP. The hike will be canceled in the event of hazardous weather.

We will meet at the Smith House Entrance of Bill Yeck Park.
2230 E. Centerville Station Rd., Centerville, OH 45459

The hike includes several water crossings (you might want to bring an extra pair of socks and shoes to change into after the hike) and stairs. If you have questions I can be reached at 513-314-0272.

Let's get out and enjoy a beautiful evening hike. We will hike about 4 miles at a moderate/brisk pace around 3 mph. There is an option to exit the hike after about 3.3 miles. The hike has good sized hills with a couple of short steep sections. There could be some muddy trails so you may want to bring an extra pair of shoes. I do not recommend this hike for beginners. We will hike around some of the old Powder Company ruins near the river. You may want to bring water and trekking poles.
