1966 Hiking Challenge Pinhook Bog

Hike all of the trails in the national park. The challenge will take place over the course of the summer with each week featuring a new trail. There will be a total of 19 hikes covering 66 miles to honor the year the park was established. Can’t make all of the hikes? Look on our website for a link to Project 1966.

PLEASE NOTE: Visitors are encouraged to bring knee-boots for the ranger-led hike on the Bog Trail. The bog's unusually high water level has flooded a short section of boardwalk that is under approximately 8 inches of water. Due to its sensitivity, the Pinhook Bog Trail has Restricted Access and is only available on authorized staff tours. Hike the Upland trail to complete this challenge self-guided.
