WANDERBIRDS HIKING CLUB

January 16, 2024

 

The Wanderbirds are now on Meetup and bus hikes are back!

Bus hike pickups are in downtown DC and, depending on the hike, at Grosvenor metro in Maryland or Vienna metro in Virginia.

We offer a mix of hikes: bus hikes, carpool hikes, and trailhead hikes. Our hikes are normally on Sundays. We also offer periodic Happy Hours on midweek evenings. In 2023 we held 5 Happy Hours with more to come in 2024.

How do you sign up for a hike or Happy Hour? Join the Wanderbirds Hiking Club Meetup via meetup.com. Then sign up for the hike or happy hour of your choice. Fees will not change for 2024: Still $30 for bus hikes, $5 for carpool and trailhead hikes. Happy Hour events are free.

Joining on Meetup is free, but you are also invited to become a paid Wanderbirds member for only $20 per year. The fee is a bargain with benefits including eligibility to attend our picnic, the Spring Dinner, and our annual Holiday Party. Paid members may also vote on our officer slate.

Wanderbirds are always looking for new hike leaders. If you are interested in becoming a hike leader, send an email to our trails director, Josh Silverman, at Director.Trails@wanderbirds.org. Each year we plan a hike leaders appreciation party.

The Wanderbirds Hiking Club is friendly and welcoming. We have a core group of established members and new members join us each week.

This is an exciting time for Wanderbirds. Join us to make friends, and for adventure and social activities!
