**First Day Hikes**
Welcome the New Year with a First Day Hike! What better way to start the new year than enjoying nature with friends and family.
On New Year’s Day, America’s State parks will once again celebrate First Day Hikes. These hikes provide a means for individuals and families to welcome the new year in the outdoors, exercising and connecting with nature. For many it has become a tradition.
