Greenbrier State Forest Hike
Monday, January 6, 2025 (11:00 AM - 1:00 PM)
(EST)
Description
Meet at The Hub in Lewisburg at 11:00 a.m. to carpool/caravan OR at the playground/picnic area at the state forest at 10:15 a.m. Full hike will include several loops but you can easily return to the picnic area after most of them. The first loop will be the very easy and short YMCA trail if you just want to hike a little; full hike can be up to 5 miles in length.
Participants are asked to sign an online waiver or sign in-person at the beginning of the hike.
Everyone is welcome, but minors need to be accompanied by a parent or guardian who remains with them during the entire hike. The playground area is fun and has several picnic tables if you want to sign out of the hike at any point. Wear hiking boots or shoes with good treads for longer distances (probably not necessary on the YMCA Trail), and consider ticks and insects when you dress. The trails at the state forest are well-maintained.
