This group enjoys keeping fit while having fun walking and hiking in the great outdoors. We explore trails, parks, and beaches on weekends throughout the year. All events are intended to be easy to moderate in difficulty so that even those who are new to hiking can feel happy participating. However, reasonable physical fitness is necessary due to the nature of the activity, and this group is recommended for those who can walk comfortably for at least 2 hours. We don't go at a fast pace but also …

Northern Manhattan Outside, or NoMO for short, is a group for New Yorkers to enjoy whatever gets us out into the great outdoors of Manhattan.

Many of the activities are designed to bring together northern Manhattan, New Jersey and Bronx neighbors to enjo …

Hiking is not only exercise, it's also a great chance to socialize in pleasant surroundings. All hikes will finish with dinner at an affordable restaurant willing to do separate checks. Suggestions for new routes are welcome, but will only be considered if the hike is at least 4 miles long and an appropriate restaurant at the end of the path is recommended.  Rou …

This will be a group who want to get together to walk in the morning during the week, and maybe weekends. This will more likely than not be a same time every day/week group. Also, it would be great to move the walks around to different locations....Rockefeller Preserve, North/South County Trailways, County Parks. etc. I am open for suggestions. In addition, members of different pace might group together over time. Lets be flexible.

I started this group to assemble backpackers for the purpose of finding great folks to section-hike the Appalachian Trail with. Beyond my personal desire to hike the AT, this group is dedicated to everyone who is looking to section hike any part of the trail from Georgia to Maine (this started out as an NYC/NJ/CT group, but we are expanding this group to a National level). If you are an experienced backpacker, join the group and send me a message to become an organizer and attract folks to join …

I decide to start this group because I enjoy walking and love Central Park. The 6 mile loop is challenging and great as part of my exercise routine. It would be great to have a group of women who also enjoy walking to help me push myself to go there and push my time to make it a challenge. This is for women who are interested in walking at a brisk pace for 6 miles, or working up to walking at a brisk pace.

It is about fun, good health, and making good friends, for both us and our pups. We plan to hold dog pack walks that meet in various parts of Central Park.
