Woodlands Conservancy’s 2022 Hike-A-Thon is an effort to raise funds and awareness for local land conservation.

This is your chance to get outside in nature alone or with your like-minded friends to give back to your community by walking, hiking and/or running a marathon, 26.2 miles, at your own pace in the month October.

Come Help us Kick-off the 2022 Hike-a-thon!

Join us in the woods for hiking, networking, food and fun nature activities for folks of all ages.
