Ramapo Mountain Ski Club

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 led by our Man in Yellow, Tom Nevins.

Google Map links to parking / venues are underlined (turn on satellite view for best results).

​​

Hikes are generally Medium Grade or above, commencing at 10:30am 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.
