Sleeping Giant East End Hike

The Sleeping Giant Park Association invites you to join us on our East End Hike.

Hike along with us and enjoy some of the less-often traveled trails at the east end of the Giant. We offer two options for our meeting place: either on the road just beyond the park entrance at 1:30 P.M. (at which time we will caravan to the starting place for the hike) or at the Chestnut Lane Trailhead (where we will actually begin the hike) at 1:45 P.M.

The hike is expected to last about three hours and involve traveling over uneven, rocky terrain, possibly with a degree of rock scrambling. Hikers should be in good physical condition. Wear comfortable, supportive shoes, with good traction. Bring snacks and water if you like (preferably in a day pack). The hike is free and open to the public. Advanced registration is not necessary; however, minors must be accompanied by a responsible adult and have signed permission of a parent or legal guardian. Out of consideration for the other hikers, please leave pets at home.
