What we’re about

Welcome hiking lovers. We're an in-person hiking-enthusiast group organizing guided hikes in and (mostly) around Jena. These activities range from easy to strenuous, providing opportunities for people of all ages and fitness levels to enjoy the outdoors during all seasons. We're not associated with any existing hiking club in Jena.
Activities include Saturday or Sunday hikes within easy commute from Jena. Meeting points will be close to public transportation drop offs.

HIKES
Participation:

  • Hikes are free to all participants.

  • Children under sixteen are welcome but must be accompanied by a parent or other responsible adult.

  • All participants must abide by the hike rules (see below)

Meeting Place and Time:
Hike leaders select the meeting place to coordinate with their specific hike. The hike times and meeting locations change with each hike - check the schedule. The start time in the schedule is the hike start time - please plan to arrive at least 10 minutes prior to the start time.
Hike Rules:

  • All participants must abide by the hike rules.

  • The hike leader is in charge of the hike and will make all decisions concerning the route, rest stops, duration, etc.

  • The co-leader or sweep is responsible for bringing up the rear and insuring that hikes do not get too spread out, and that hikers do not get separated from the main group.

  • Hikers experiencing any difficulty have the responsibility to inform the hike leader. Difficulties may include, but are not limited to, medical problems, lack of water, overheating or fatigue.

  • Do not leave the hike without the permission of the hike leader. For your safety do not leave the hike alone - no fewer than two hikers should go together.

  • All people must be accounted for at the end of the hike.
