Bust out those snowshoes and trekking poles and fill your thermos with hot cocoa for free guided hikes this winter with Friends of Scotchman Peaks Wilderness. Whether you’re new to snow hiking or a seasoned alpinist, the Friends have an adventure for you.
The Friends of Scotchman Peaks Wilderness offers free guided hikes year-round to get folks exploring every side of their wild backyard. And what a beautiful side it is! There’s nothing quite like the sight of white blankets covering the peaks and forests of the undisturbed Scotchmans. It’s a great opportunity to learn more about winter ecosystems, keep your body moving, and avoid the crowds.
There are few better feelings than trekking out into the winter landscape with snowshoes on your feet, enjoying the crisp winter air and the snow-laden trees. With this series of free guided hikes, FSPW hopes to get more people comfortable exploring our wild backyard every season of the year.
