-Any leftover books will be donated

Location:

Cleary Lake Regional Park - 18106 Texas Avenue, Prior Lake, MN 55372

We will meet at the pavillion area.

Cost: FREE!

To be respectful of time, we will do quick intros and embark on our hike around 1:15pm. Please ensure you allow enough travel time to arrive by 1pm

Hike:

We plan to do the Cleary Lake trail, about 3.4 miles, the trail is paved and mostly flat. AllTrails map.

What to bring: Hiking boots/sneakers with good traction, dress for the weather, sunglasses, sunscreen, bug spray, phone/camera, water, snacks.

Due to the larger group setting, no dogs or pets unless they are working/service animals.

We will cap sign-ups at 40 attendees. This ensures everyone joining us has a comfortable hiking experience and avoids negatively impacting the experience of others recreating on the trails.

If we’ve hit capacity, please join the waitlist. We’ll do our best to accommodate as we receive cancellations. Keep an eye on your email for notifications!

Upon signing up for this hike you are agreeing to hike at your own risk. This organization (#youcanhikewithus) is not legally liable for injuries, damages, or potential covid-19 exposure that could happen to the individual.

If you don’t feel well the day of the hike, please stay home. We’ll catch you at a future meetup and hope you feel better soon.
