Hit the Trail

Our hiking programs are designed to get out on the trails and explore local parks with an experienced leader while meaningfully connecting with others in our community.

Tiny Trekkers

Ages 0-6 + their adults, siblings welcome 

The Y Outdoors family trail walk & park exploration program is designed to help families access our local parks, increase confidence adventuring outdoors in all weather and build community amongst families with young kids. 

This session we are excited to be teaming up with the Whatcom Family Village! We will start walking from there each week and explore the trails nearby. Afterward, we invite you to join us for playtime, a snack and warm drink inside!

These walks are paced for all levels and stroller friendly. Distance will be based on the group.

Come dressed for the elements and ready to have a fun time and make new friends.
