Mid-week Hike at Richardson Nature Center

Let’s meet up to hike the hills, woodlands and prairie of Hyland Lake Park Reserve from our meetup point at the Richardson Nature Center.

Expect to hike 5+ miles at a moderate pace of about 18 minutes/mile in less than 2 hours. While hiking we will encounter earthen trails, rocks, roots, several hills and if you're up for it down some old wooden steps along a steep ridge line. I encourage situational awareness, welcome a spirit of exploration and creating a fun and safe experience in these beautiful natural surroundings and rely on your help making it happen!

Preparation recommendations include water, maybe an energy snack, any emergency meds/supplies for your needs, and use of sun and insect protection as appropriate.

No kids, dogs or +1s on this hike; only members who agree to read and comply with the expectations set by Three Rivers Parks, this event description, TCHM and Meetup Community Guidelines may participate.

We will meet in front of the Nature Center building where modern restrooms and chilled filtered water are available. Welcome and introductions begin at start time so we can get on the trail and have some fun! Be sure to timely update your attendance if your plans change; No-shows may be noted as hike leaders may remove repeat no-shows when there is higher demand.

Let others know if you wish to get together after the hike for food, drink or treats at a local gathering place.

Hope to see you there!
