Saturday Hike: Stairway to Heaven [Transportation Included]

Experience the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of the city on this unforgettable hike through the beautiful Pochuck Valley. The adventure begins along the famous Appalachian Trail, where you’ll walk across scenic boardwalks, a suspension bridge, and peaceful open fields before reaching the legendary “Stairway to Heaven” — a scenic uphill path of rocky switchbacks leading to the top. Once you reach the summit, you’ll be rewarded with breathtaking panoramic views that make every step worth it. Immerse yourself in nature, fresh air, and stunning landscapes on this incredible outdoor adventure.

Pack your favorite sandwich and drink, we will have a snack break on the trail.

We’ll wrap up our adventure at a local market, where we can relax, enjoy ice cream and refreshing drinks, and spend time chatting and connecting with fellow adventurers.

We are getting away from the city to forget about timing, enjoy nature and socialize. If you’re looking to make new outdoorsy friends, you’ve found the perfect place. But if you’re seeking a fast-paced group, this might not be the right fit.
