Saturday, September 23rd, 2023, 3:00pm: Hike thru Estate Adventure Trail

General info for all hikes and walks: Hikes and walks are $5 for members, and $10 for non-members (become a member). Unless otherwise noted, the pace for hikes is moderate, lasting 3-5 hours, covering 3-5 miles, the terrain is hilly, footing is sometimes uneven, and we follow trails and possibly paved or dirt roads. Walks are easier and shorter than hikes, and usually follow paved or dirt roads, no trails. The guide may periodically stop and talk along the way. Bring sturdy, comfortable walking or hiking shoes, water, snack, bug spray, rain poncho, and camera. Shorts or long pants are OK. For day hikes, bring a hat and sun block. For night hikes, bring a small flashlight. There are usually about 20 people. We depart about 30 minutes after the posted start time. For some hikes, we will meet at the indicated location, then drive a short distance to the hike location.

Specific info for this hike: The hike will be the Estate Adventure trail which has been made accessible recently. The hike will be in the gut, then along the gut. There will be areas of interest where large trees are located. The terrain is mostly flat, with trees down, stumps, gut sand, etc., to navigate. The total distance will be between 2-3 miles.

We will meet at 3pm by the Baobab tree located across from the main entrance to the Dept of Agriculture (the grass has been cut around the tree). The hike will be led by Steve Cohen and Catherine Prince. No reservations needed, please be on time. Don't forget your water!
