Thursday Night Hike! March 3, 6:30pm
Looks like -18 for Thursday Night, so bundle up! We tend to keep a pretty brisk pace, so you’re not likely to be cold anyways. 🙂
We’ll meet downtown Cobourg again and head out to somewhere—passing by nowhere, maybe going here, maybe there, and exploring the in-between. In other words, you just never know where we’ll go but we always know it’s an adventure! We will likely do 7-10km, depending on the wishes of the group.
All members are welcome and so are Guests! If you haven’t renewed your 2022 membership, you can do it online right from the NHCC website and it’s marvellously quick and easy to do. Guests must bring a signed Off-season waiver (available on our website).

And if you think you have it in you for a longer distance, we’ve got you covered for that too!

Evening Hike: Thursday December 9, 6:30pm
We did Cobourg for the past few weeks, so this week we’ll switch back to Port Hope—mostly because we want to go see the big lights display on Choate Road. You know the one….it’s really something else! And if you don’t know, come on out and see for yourself. It’s worth the walk. It’s about a 10k hike, and we recommend you bring a headlamp or flashlight. And hey, let’s get festive this week and put our lights on!

Evening Hike: Thursday December 2

Last week we had a fabulous hike with 10 people who came out, making the most of a misty damp evening. But don’t let the weather fool you! By all accounts it was a whole lot of fun and we went 11km! This week we will meet for a Cobourg start again. We usually go out for about 2 hours, so wear some comfortable footwear and layer up.
