First Day Hike - Jan 1st 2024 11:00pm



The tradition of taking a hike on New Year’s Day has been practiced at some parks in Pennsylvania for more than 30 years and was made into a formal US tradition by the National Association of State Park Directors in 2012. 

By taking a First Day Hike, you can get a head start on your resolutions to get outside more or exercise more, all while exploring the natural beauty of McKaig Nature Center.

Winter Hiking tips and tricks for beginners will be discussed on this Park Ranger guided walk.

Approximately 1.5 mile hike with a moderate amount of elevation gain. We will return at about 12:30 to give you time to get home for the game.

Meet at the Croton Road trailhead by Roberts Elementary School.
