About This Event
Looking for a way to get outside without taking up your whole day? Join us for a 2 mile hike through the Blue Hills during your lunch hour. It’s a chance to step away from your desk, get some fresh air, stretch your legs, and enjoy a little time on the trails.
We’ll keep a comfortable pace and take in the scenery along the way. Whether you regularly hike the Blue Hills or are looking for an easy way to get started, this is a great opportunity to explore the Reservation and meet other people who enjoy getting outside.
Bring comfortable hiking shoes, water, and come ready to enjoy your lunch break outside!
