Hiking Group

Welcome to the HFUMC Hiking Group! 

 
We just started up in May, 2009, and we have had some great hikes already. We have had 44 people join us on our hikes!  Below you will find information on our upcoming outings. We try to do a variety of hikes each month, including short, easy walks and more strenuous ones. Some of the more interesting places to hike require a bit of driving, but we try to only do one of those per month. If you are new to hiking, you might want to start with an easy or moderate hike. To sign up for a hike, please contact Bethany Hader (see contact info at the bottom of the page). It's helpful for us to know who is coming, so that we can contact you in case we need to cancel a hike. Be sure to check back often!
