About this Event

A scenic hike is a great way to unwind and unplug. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced hiker, this is the perfect trail to discover the serenity of the reservoir.

The trail we’ll blaze will be an easy 6.5-mile loop with small, crushed gravel terrain and very minimal inclines/elevation changes. We'll introduce you to the ten essentials of hiking travel and introduce the principles of Leave No Trace. All skill sets are welcome; however, children are not permitted on this hike for safety reasons.

We'll see you on the trails!
