Hiking
​
During the lead-up to the ski season, members of The Ramapo Mountain Ski Club join together to venture out into the great outdoors on hiking trips within the area. We also join-up with members of the Meetup Group Rockland/Bergen Ski & Boarders of RMSC
​
Details of upcoming hikes are listed below, this year our hikes will be led by RMSC member volunteers, as organized by Suzan Longo.
​​
Hikes are generally Medium Grade or above, commencing at 10:00am and finishing mid-afternoon.
Distance will be 5-10 miles, please be mindful of your ability.
Sometimes we continue to a nearby hostelry for refreshment afterwards.
​
Don't forget to bring...
-
Hiking boots, please wear them for ankle support, rock protection etc.
-
Poles are nice.
-
Water, particularly if it is warm, bring twice what you think you will need.
-
Lunch, something to refuel yourself, no need to be fancy.
