What we’re about
A group dedicated to hiking and exploring on weekends. And week night catch ups, varied locations, often breweies and bats but nonalcoholic always available.
The goals of the hikes are to go on medium to long hikes, mostly outside of the city, see beautiful scenery, get exercise, and socialize with fellow hiking enthusiasts!!!
Hikes will range from 4-8 miles, and usually include steep sections, and uneven terrain. We carpool to trailhead from Eugene from pre announced parking lots; drivers volunteer (leader always one of the cars), riders encouraged to provide gas money. Drive time up to 1.5 hours.
These are all day hikes, eating lunch/snacks half way through on trail, and back as late as 4pm. Plus, we often stop on the way back for drinks and snacks and socializing!!!
Note: This is not a beginner group, it is for people who want and are able to hike up to 8 miles, although often it will be shorter. ALSO!!! Please come prepared. This includes the following:
-food, lunch recommended but snacks ok if enough for a full day hike
-water, 1 liter or more
-hiking boots or equivalent
-layers for cooler weather including waterproof coat as needed, hats recommended if hot
A fun group for fun people who love hiking, nature, and meeting new people!
