Hikes:
Can't wait until May to hit the trails? Come on a Wilderness Heals informational hike!

Throughout the spring, members of the Wilderness Heals Recruitment Committee will be hosting hikes at Blue Hills Reservation and Middlesex Fells. These hikes are open to everyone — participants do not need to be registered Wilderness Heals hikers.

Come if you want to jumpstart your training, meet other hikers, or learn more about the 3-day event. Bring a friend, bring some snacks, and enjoy a walk in the woods! Please note that because these are not official training hikes, participants do not need to carry all of the required Wilderness Heals gear.

  • Saturday, April 12, 2008, at Middlesex Fells Reservation
  • Saturday, April 20, 2008, at Middlesex Fells Reservation
