Pre-Trek Hikes


The Pioneer Trek this year will be a great experience we hope that you enjoy. There are some super wonderful experiences available through the activities planned. However, you will enjoy yourself far more if you attend the trek prepared. One of the areas of preparation which will have a large impact on your experience is your physical conditioning. The trek staff doesn't expect everyone to become super athletes but we are planning a few pre-trek physical conditioning activities to help augment your other conditioning efforts.

For all these hikes, bring your own water and any snacks you might want. We suggest you wear the same shoes that you plan on wearing to the trek.

See you on the Trail!
