State Parks Host January 1st Hikes

Posted on 8:53 PM by
America's State Parks are making a New Year's Day toast to good health by hosting hikes on January 1st. The tradition began over twenty years ago in Massachusetts, and this year marks the third in a row that at least one park in all fifty states will be participating. Last year's First Day Hikes brought out 22,000 hikers, who covered more than 44,000 miles of State Park trails across the country.

Nothing like a family outing in the fresh air to start out the year on the very best (hiking boot-clad) foot! Many of the parks even offer guided hikes of varying difficulty levels - check out this article from Skift for more details, including links to each of the fifty State Parks' websites.
