Some of our most popular activities are Hiking Days. We have a dedicated group of volunteers who guide hikes throughout the year to local natural attractions. Some recent destinations have been Nickie’s Trail, Archie’s Rock, High Falls and Bald Rock. The galleries below show some highlights of our recent hikes, and more images can be found on our Facebook page.
2020 Fall Hiking Day
Like everything else in 2020, our Fall Hiking Day had a different look this year. Due to social distancing restrictions, we were not able to hike as a group this year, so some creativity was required. By hosting a “virtual hike” throughout the month, participants were able to enjoy the local trails, join at their own convenience and be entered into a draw for some great prizes. From the feedback received, even avid local hikers found new trails that they were not familiar with. Entries can be seen on Facebook or Instagram #wintergreenconservation. We look forward to continuing with our hiking days as soon as we are able to, so stay tuned for Winter 2021.
