Fall History Hike

October 8, 2023 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Free

Join the Sleeping Giant Park Association for a guided hike exploring the history of Sleeping Giant State Park. This hike will be led by Julie Hulten and Trina Learned, who have each done extensive research into the history of the park and the Association. Both will talk about the construction of the tower and the quarrying that gave rise to the movement to save the Giant a century ago.

Participants other than leader and helpers will be limited to 30 hikers. Advanced registration is required and each hiker should register separately. There will be a wait list so please cancel if you find that you cannot attend.

REGISTER HERE >>

This will be a moderate hike – 2 hours or so with stops for discussion. All hikers should bring water and have proper clothing and footwear for conditions. Children must be 8 or older. Sorry, no pets.

The hike will begin at 1:00 PM at the map board at the front of the park. Please arrive 15 minutes early. If cancelled due to weather, you will be contacted by email that morning.

For additional information about this or other hikes, please contact SGPA’s hiking programs manager at [email protected].
