Pocahontas State Park Hike

Join us for our first event of 2026 on April 4, 2026 at Pocahontas State Park. We'll be going back to the Bright Hope Trail. There's a 5.2mi and 7.1 mile option - both are considered easy, and we can make that decision at the trailhead. You can expect this to take 2-3 hours, depending on the route we go.

We meet at 10AM - further details will be sent to folks who sign up. Bring water, a snack, and some good shoes. Note that there is a creek crossing about an ankle deep, but it's totally managable. Do not pay attention to the address. That's the address of the park itself. I will send out a meet up point.

Cost is $5 for parking which goes to the State Park system.

This is a very easy and accessible hike and marks 3rd time we've done this one: it's well attended and dog friendly, so why not do it again to kick off the warm months?!

Note: This is a peer-organized hike, not a guided or professional event. By attending, you acknowledge that hiking involves inherent risks (including injury, weather, terrain, and wildlife) and agree that you are responsible for your own safety, decisions, and preparedness. You participate voluntarily and at your own risk.
