Saturday, March 8th, 2025 – 3.4 miles – Highbanks Metro Park 9466 Columbus Pike, Lewis Center, OH 43035
The “18 Challenge” is a monthly series of progressively longer hikes that culminate in a challenging 18-mile hike on September 13th at Burr Oak. Most hikes are on the 2nd Saturday of the month - check the dates carefully! Hikes begin from 7:30 to 9:00 a.m., start times are posted on the COP calendar.
The July, Aug & Sept hikes include a group camping opportunity for Friday and/or Saturday nights. We recognize these state parks require a longer drive, so COP has reserved group sites each weekend. Enjoy the comradery before and/or after the day’s hike!
“18 Challenge” hikes are free, but COP membership or a $20 donation is suggested to cover costs for volunteer leaders and our insurance needs. Please consider joining COP as a MEMBER.
PLEASE PRE-REGISTER so there’s no delay at the start of the hike. Two Outdoor Pursuits Hiking Leaders will attend each hike. Leaders contact information can be found in the “more info” link on the registration page.
