Come and enjoy the beauty of the Green Ribbon Trail 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 Penllyn Woods Community Building.
