Hike Details


This is an out-and-back hike along a route where hunting is not
allowed. There are two option: a Short Option and a Long Option. Choose one:
 
The Short Option eliminates the climb from downtown to the Cornell Campus, reducing the round-trip distance to 3 miles. The short option is flat and is rated easy.
 
The Long Option goes for 7 miles. It is rated moderate due to the climb from downtown to the Cornell campus.

The route will be on well-developed walking paths and city streets.
Since this is an in-town out-and-back hike, hikers are welcome to turn
around whenever they want.

Dress in layers for the season, bring water and lunch or snacks.
 
Contact the hike leader if you have any questions.
 
Check this space the morning of the hike for any changes or a cancellation.
