Bring in the New Year with a fun-filled hike! Come early and enjoy a bonfire, hot chocolate and cookies!
Hikes:
Our chapter has organized three guided loop hikes:
- Family-Friendly 1 mile hike on a paved path
- 2 mile wooded path
- 3.5 mostly wooded path
Details:
Each hike will be guided by knowledgeable leaders who will share information on various points of interest. Dress for the weather. Ice cleats may be helpful. These hikes are free, although a park sticker or day pass is required for entrance to Lapham Peak. Save time and purchase your sticker early. It can be ordered online here.
Location:
All three hikes will begin and end at the Mike Fort Shelter located near Homestead Hollow in Lapham Peak.

The Hikes:
Start the New Year off right with our Chapter’s First Day Hike! There are two hikes to choose from:
- A family-friendly walk leaves from Homestead Hollow and follows the paved Plantation Path for a 1.8-mile loop.
- A longer hike leaves from the Tower parking lot and will be about 3.5 miles long (but loops by the lot again about halfway through).
Details:
Dress for the weather and wear sturdy shoes/boots. Trekking poles are recommended. Cleats are recommended if it is icy. There will be no refreshments provided this year, but Delafield and Hartland have many wonderful businesses nearby. A State Park Pass is not required on New Year’s Day.
Location:
The family-friendly walk leaves from Homestead Hollow. The longer hike leaves from the Tower parking lot.
