Stride with Pride: Point Defiance Holiday Ugly Sweater Hike

Get into the holiday spirit with us and rock your ugly holiday sweaters as we hike through the beautiful trails of Point Defiance Park! We'll be doing the Outer Loop which is approximately 4.2 miles with 300 feet of elevation gain. We will meet at the Fort Nisqually parking lot at 10am and plan to hit the trail by 10:15am.

We'll hike rain or shine- the trees do provide some protection from the rain but please come prepared with raincoat.
