With the beautiful weather upon us, it would be a shame to stay indoors. What better way to enjoy it than by going on a hike with friends?
But while we’re soaking in the fresh air and stunning views, we can also give back to nature and our community. During Hike Without Trace, we’ll learn simple ways to minimize our environmental impact and help keep the hiking trails clean by picking up litter left behind.
A healthy environment goes hand in hand with our own well-being. So why not take this opportunity to stay active, connect with nature, and make a positive difference?
Join us for a fun, relaxing, and rewarding outdoor adventure!
