Come and enjoy the beauty of Willow Lake Preserve and get a workout in at the same time! Power hiking involves going as fast as possible without actually running and while maintaining a strong and smooth form. This monthly hike is for those looking to improve their fitness, efficiency, and endurance while navigating paved and dirt trails. The group will do a total of 60 (intense) minutes on the trail and will start and end back at the entrance to Willow Lake.
Hike
We invite you to explore the connections between our Armentrout and Briar Hill Preserves. This guided hike will be approximately 5 miles and will highlight the trail connections and new wayfinding signage that will navigate you through multiple preserves. This route will showcase the best way to make the most of the route, and we estimate the hike will take 2 hours.
