Fall is a perfect time for hiking. In Newtown, we are lucky enough to have a wonderful group of outdoor enthusiasts who frequently engage in group hikes.
Hikers gather at 9:00 am at the Edmond Town Hall lower parking lot. Check with the listed leader for questions. Most hikes are moderate with some elevation. The more challenging hikes will be noted!
