Description
Internet Registration has not begun yet. Check Registration Dates in details.
First Day Hikes are free, guided hikes offered each year on New Year’s Day. The hikes are intended to promote an alternate way of celebrating the New Year by going outside, getting some exercise, and enjoying local nature and history. Start your year off on the right foot by joining our knowledgeable park rangers, naturalists, and volunteers in one of our County’s beautiful parks.
Begin your year with nature in mind by joining us on one of two hikes at Downs Park. Participants will be able to choose a shorter, more kid-friendly walk or a longer, more strenuous hike on the perimeter trail. Enjoy views of the Chesapeake Bay as Rangers guide you through the park.
Sturdy footwear, binoculars, cameras, and a water bottle are recommended. Please dress for the weather. This program is free, but registration is required. Normal gate fees apply. For more information, contact the park at 410-222-6230.
Can’t make the guided hike? Join us anytime Saturday, December 28 through Sunday, January 5 to enjoy a self-guided option. Stop by the Downs Park gatehouse to pick up a map, guide and First Day Hike sticker (while supplies last). Registration is not required for the self-guided hike.For a list of all Anne Arundel County Recreation & Parks First Day Hikes visit aarecparks.org/firstdayhikes
