Hiking - North Park (Intermediate) - 9 Miles

Sometimes we like to hit the trails hard, but other times we like to slow it down and enjoy a casual stroll in the park. This event is more about getting outside and enjoying the camaraderie amongst Trail Buddies as opposed to accruing cold hard miles. It’s also a great opportunity if you’re looking to become more physically active and/or thinking about getting yourself into the wonderful world of hiking and backpacking and would like to bounce questions off an experienced backpacker.

Half of our hike will be on pavement, while the other half will be on an easy section of the Rachel Carson Trail. There won't be any stream crossings but the Rachel Carson could be muddy in spots, so please dress appropriately.

This is the morning (1st of 2) North Park hikes. Feel free to sign up for both if you’re up for hiking 18 miles.
