We hike every other Saturday and Sunday, covering 4 to 7.5 miles per hike, perfect for getting your steps in while enjoying nature and good company. Our hikes vary in location to keep things fresh and exciting, from Greenbelt gems to Hill Country favorites. Our trail leaders are quite experienced and seasoned, with a combined experience of hosting over 500+ hikes across Central Texas and Austin. ⛰️🌿📈
But we’re more than just hikers, we’re a community. After each hike, we gather at a local cafe, coffee shop, or brunch spot to unwind, connect, and refuel. So wear shoes you can move in, bring your water bottle, and let’s hit the trails and grab a bite after! 😋
We’re excited to see y’all on the trails/hikes! Thank you! 🌿👣
