6-mile, moderate hike. We will explore some of the busiest, most popular areas of Harpers Ferry as well as woodland areas few people know about. Some new trails have recently been developed by area volunteers. Winter will allow beautiful views of the Potomac River and the surrounding hills. Our route will take us on pavement, steep rock staircases, and earthen forest trails. It is appropriate for adults and children (accompanied by adults) capable of the distance and a couple of steep hills on uneven terrain. There is no charge for the hike, but donations are welcome.
Bring water and a snack. Wear shoes appropriate for the varying tread and terrain, and poles or a walking stick may be helpful for some.
We will carry on in light rain, but cancel in case of icy conditions or heavy precipitation.
