Step beyond the everyday—and head out onto the trail. Hiking is one of the simplest and most rewarding ways to stay active, explore new places, and build confidence outdoors. Whether you’re planning your first hike or looking to go farther, this class covers the essentials to help you prepare, pack, and move through the outdoors with purpose. You’ll learn how to choose the right gear, plan a safe and responsible trip, and pack efficiently—so you can spend less time second-guessing and more time enjoying the fresh air, changing landscapes, and the freedom to go further.

Notes

This session will also touch on the unique aspects of desert hiking - including staying hydrated - so you can make the most of your day out whether adventuring in one of our beautiful Sky Island mountain ranges or in the heart of the Sonoran Desert.
