About us
***
Purpose of the Group:
The purpose of this group is to bring people together for relaxed, enjoyable hikes — mostly on Saturday mornings — designed for those of us who work Monday through Friday. Hikes will be relatively easy and within about an hour’s drive of Tampa.
We’re excited to welcome Dominick and Tonya as event organizers. They may occasionally plan events during the week or further away, offering more flexibility and variety.
Who should attend:
Anyone who enjoys hiking or the outdoors.

If there’s been recent heavy rain, sections of the trail can be wet or muddy, especially near low-lying areas. Wear shoes that can handle a little water just in case!
🧢 Bring water, bug spray, and comfortable walking shoes. This is an easy-going, steady-paced walk and a great chance to enjoy one of Tampa’s quieter green spaces.PARKING NOTE: If you can, backing in makes leaving much easier since the parking area is the fenceline.
