Calling all hike leaders! You are now able to add your local hikes to the PA Hiking Week schedule! We are hoping to offer over 100 hikes across Pennsylvania, between May 28 and June 5, 2016, and need your help to do so.
Please pass this information along to anyone that may be interested in coordinating and leading a hike during this annual week-long event.
For several years, KTA has teamed up with the PA Dept. of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR) to present PA Hiking Week, a celebration of Keystone State trails. All KTA members and Club members are encouraged to submit hikes to the PA Hiking Week site.
DCNR is utilizing Explore PA Trails' website for PA Hiking Week. You may access it directly by clicking here.
or you can go to http://www.explorepatrails.com/hikingweek.aspx. Please make sure that you enter hikes into the PA Hiking Week section, and not the general ExplorePATrails event category.
Note: If you do not already have one, you will need to create an account (free, and fast) by clickng "Register" in the top right of the screen, prior to entering in your hike schedule.
When you enter descriptions of your hikes, please be as specific as possible, and include such details as length, level, what to bring, contact person, email, specific directions and whatever else is pertinent. This information will show up in the event description.
Thank you all for your help, and Happy Trails!
