Event Details

I’m scouting locations for future events, and you’re welcome to join. Expect a casual pace, some wandering, and a bit of unknown since we’ll be figuring things out as we go.

  • Difficulty: Easy
  • Length: 1.25 miles
  • Terrain: Dirt trail and boardwalks
  • Pace: Relaxed

What to Bring

  • Long pants
  • Sturdy hiking shoes or boots
  • Water (at least 1L)
  • Sunscreen and bug spray
  • Walking stick or hiking poles (optional)
  • Clean shoes for the car ride home (leave in the car)

Schedule

No strict itinerary. Plan for 1-2 hours outside at each location.

Ground Rules

  • No dogs. (Twin Swamps permits on-leash, but our follow-up hike does not).
