Cost: Free!

To be respectful of time, we will do quick intros and embark on our hike around 10:05am. Please ensure you allow enough travel time to arrive by 10am.

We will meet outside of the Gateway Center. Please note there are two sides to this park; use the Brooklyn Park address to navigate.

Hike:

We plan to hike approximately 3 to 4 miles, a mix of paved and unpaved trails, mostly flat. Exact trail will be determined at a later date and will depend on trail conditions at the time of our hike.

What to bring: Hiking boots/sneakers with good traction, dress in layers for the weather, sunglasses,phone/camera, water, snacks. There may be ice and or snow on the traills; wearing traction devices such as YakTrax may be helpful!

Due to the larger group setting, no dogs or pets unless they are working/service animals.

We will cap sign-ups at 40 attendees. This ensures everyone joining us has a comfortable hiking experience and avoids negatively impacting the experience of others recreating on the trails.

If we’ve hit capacity, please join the waitlist. We’ll do our best to accommodate as we receive cancellations. Keep an eye on your email for notifications!

Upon signing up for this hike you are agreeing to hike at your own risk. This organization (@youcanhikewithus) is not legally liable for injuries, damages, or illness exposure that could happen to the individual.

If you don’t feel well the day of the hike, please stay home. We’ll catch you at a future meetup and hope you feel better soon.
