Description

Beginners & Backpackers Hikes are designed for new hikers (or those just getting back into it) and backpackers who want to start “practicing” with partially loaded packs.  These hikes will be at a slower pace, with lots of breaks and generally easy terrain, building up to harder hikes as the season progresses.  If you’re a new hiker, bring your 10 essentials.  If you’re a backpacker, bring a partially loaded pack 15 to 20 lbs. (or more) to start.  Please comment if you are a beginner or a backpacker.

These are easy trails with some hills, forest and open areas.  We will add some elevation by hiking down to the Dallas Drive Trailhead and back up again (approx. 1km each way)  From there we go to the lookout above Dallas Drive and then circle around to Blackwell Dairy Road, eventually returning to Eliza Road.  5 to 6 km total.

Meet at Market Fresh Foods in Dallas for 5.30 pm, leave by 5:45 pm.  We will hike for approx. 2 hours.  Bring a headlamp, water, snack and dress for the weather.

4 dogs maximum, 1 dog per person.  Please comment if you are brining your dog.
