Trek the Trails! 2025

A healthy hiking challenge for staff, volunteers, members, and friends of Seven Ponds.


October 1 through October 31

Throughout the month of October, Seven Ponds staff will be hiking the trails - here at the nature center and elsewhere - in a (mostly) friendly competition with one another.


We will be leading hikes at Seven Ponds on Tuesdays and Thursdays throughout the month. Join Seven Ponds staff for a free one-hour trek at the ponds on the following dates:


⇒ Thursday, October 2 @ 9:00 AM


⇒ Tuesday, October 7 @ 9:00 AM 


⇒ Thursday, October 9 @ 9:00 AM 


⇒ Tuesday, October 14 @ 9:00 AM 


⇒ Thursday, October 16 @ 9:00 AM 


⇒ Tuesday, October 21 @ 9:00 AM 


⇒ Thursday, October 23 @ 9:00 AM


⇒ Tuesday, October 28 @ 9:00 AM


⇒ Thursday, October 30 @ 9:00 AM


We encourage you to participate by doing some hiking on your own as well, at Seven Ponds or wherever you are!
