| HIKING MICHIGAN opened it's doors in the cold Winter of 1998. In the Spring of 2005 we put together our first organized HIKE. Since then, we have grown to over 1,000 members, and are expanding our Hikes & Activities schedule to include Special Programs & Specialty Hikes. We Hike 2-3 times per month, year-round, and publish a bimonthly NewsLetter. The Hikes are 2-3 hours long and range from 2-8 miles in length. The pace is slow for our normal Nature style hikes. | We are there to explore! All hikes are led by trail leaders with 20 to 35 years experience in the outdoors, and on the local Trails. Our predominant Nature style hikes, allow us to stop and examine various plant, insect & wildlife along the way. There are also other scheduled hikes that are more aggressive in pace and Trail distances. There are no Elitists here, and we are not out to conquer anything. The camaraderie out on the trails is just Fantastic! Join us some time. You will not regret it! | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
