Astoria Hikers

Information

It is ALMOST true that Astoria has it all. Why Leave Astoria, you ask? One of the few reasons is to get out there and hike!

The Hudson Valley offers amazing opportunities to get some fresh air, a little workout, and a respite from urban life- much of it accessible via Metro North, or if we are lucky- carpooling.

I will organize some hiking excursions, and I invite anyone who wants to organize a group event to do so as well. This will be a great venue to meet some fun, active Astorians! Invite your friends!

Comment by Lynne C on Saturday: Check out photos from this week's last minute hike to Sterling Fore...

Comment by Lynne C on Saturday: two spots left for Saturday 6/15's hike- feel free to meet us at dunkin' donuts at the Astoria Blvd NQ stop tomorrow morning at 830am- I have two more spots left in my car

Comment by Lynne C on June 8, 2013 at 9:37pm: Last minute hike b/c I can't resist! Two more seats open in my car.

Tomorrow's hike (Sunday), 830 am in front of Astoria Blvd N-stop Dunkin Donuts. RSVP here or on FB if you're interested :)

Decided on Butter Hill- looks like one other person may be coming from Astoria and we're meeting one of my friend's up there. The beginning of this hike is a bit steep, but after that it's a walk in the park. Any interest?

Comment by Lynne C on June 3, 2013 at 5:29pm: Check out a few pics from this past weekend's hike!

Comment by Lynne C on May 29, 2013 at 5:35pm: Have a car AND have been wanting to come along on an Astoria Hikers outing?!? This Saturday would be the PERFECT day for it- beautiful weather, lots of interest in the hike so you're car should be full or close to full (a.k.a. more people to split gas and tolls!) Post under the 6/1 Hike discussion above to join in, coordinate a carpool... or visit our facebook page

Comment by Lynne C on May 26, 2013 at 7:36pm: Check out photos from this week's hike on the Astoria Hikers Facebook page. Stay tuned for more exciting hikes this spring/summer....

I hope to see you all out there on the trail :)

Comment by Lynne C on May 26, 2013 at 7:47am: It's going to be a cold one out there today. Layer up! :)

Comment by Lynne C on January 4, 2013 at 9:22am: Hi JM- Welcome to the group! so the group is kinda new, though we've been on about 5 hikes and they were super fun! Anyways, things hiking-wise will be a bit slow because of the winter, but I'm trying to get the group together for skiing and local events. Keep checking back at the website. I haven't figured out how to have members get automatic emails regarding updates. You can also check in at www.astoriahikers.blogspot.com. So far, I'm thinking of a ski day on January 12th and a Allman Bros and Brews day at the new Singlecut Brewery in Astoria on the 26th. Hope to see you at one of our future events! Thanks again for your interest. :)

Comment by Lynne C on November 27, 2012 at 12:11pm: Hey Guys, Just wondering if anyone who took pictures at this weekend's hike could send them to me. I'd like to put them up on the Blog... THANKS!
