Fahnestock: Three Lakes Hike
Sunday, December 15, 2024
OK, Team! The holidays are here, and in between the hustle and bustle, this is an opportunity to make a little time for yourself. We are ending the year on a gentle, beautiful note. This hike has little elevation gain and loss, so it’s great for getting back into nature. It’s also a perfect way to ease into cooler-weather hiking. You can take your time on the trail and enjoy the beauty it has to offer. This route is all about the lakes – three total! We are going to be around water features for most of the day. So, relax, enjoy, and reconnect with old friends. And make some new ones! Take a self-care day during the holiday season!
