Hello old friends & new friendsEasiest exercise you can do is Hike...Hike...! Consider Hiking is a great way to exercise. Hiking is a great exercise that's accessible, enjoyable, and can be suitable for people of all ages and fitness levels. It's a low-impact activity that works out the whole body, and it can help build stronger muscles and bones.
This is popular as this trail is, the $10 parking lot. The huge parking lot and restrooms were quite classy. With lots of climbing up and down. There's a lot of shade on the trail.
In 3 hours time, we'll able to visit everything climbed on Goat Rock, basked at the vast views on a rock along Saratoga Gap Trail, may be waterfall which is just trickling, and visit the famous and crowded Castle Rock. This is a great hiking destination because it is close to town, great views, and fun opportunities to scamper on rocks,
We will hike at a comfortable pace miles with brief intermittent stops to ensure the group stays together, and a 30-minute or so snack break.

WHY I LEAD THE HIKE : It's my pleasure to help other always & enjoying helping connecting with other like-minded hikers. You can engage in social and physical activities at the same time. You're less likely to tire easily in a group. You're in a safer environment. There's something special about getting out in nature and getting away from our busy and hectic everyday lives. Whether it's for a few months, weeks, or days. Getting out in nature helps us to clear the clutter in our minds and allows us be renewed mentally 😊.
If you RSVP and can't make it, please cancel at least the night before the event so we won't wait for you. Thanks!
