Description

This event is a three mile social hike along the Neuse River Greenway designed to help participants reduce stress and build meaningful local connections. The walk takes place on a mix of paved and natural surfaces and is intended for adults seeking a productive morning in nature.

The route features the Neuse River Suspension Bridge and the historic Milburnie Dam, offering scenic spots for photography and conversation. Participants will gather at 9:00 AM for networking, followed by a light stretch and a prompt 9:30 AM start. Please bring water, sunscreen, and bug spray to ensure personal comfort. Merchandise will be available for purchase, and the group plans to visit a nearby restaurant for brunch following the hike.

This experience is open to all fitness levels and is strictly for adults. Because parking at the trailhead fills up quickly, arrive early or arrange carpooling. For a full schedule of upcoming gatherings, please visit the official website. We look forward to seeing you there for a morning of fresh air, movement, and community building.
