Please note: We now require that all Hikers sign a waiver (called the Acknowledgment of Participant Responsibility, Express Assumption of Risk, and Release of Liability) at the start of each event. You can read the waiver on the "About" page. For those of you who are around during the week... get away for an hour or so from city living into our little arcadian gem -- Forest Park! We'll meet by the benches at Wallenberg Square at 10:30am. We'll wait 15 minutes and start the hike promptly at 10:45am. Look for any one of our organizers, Werner or Lixandra, who will be leading the hike. Wallenberg Square is located at the southwest corner of Metropolitan Avenue and Park Lane South. If you need a street address to plug into Mapquest.com or Hopstop.com, use the building across the street at 116-40 Park Lane South, Richmond Hill, NY 11418. Bring a bottle of water, sturdy walking shoes and a friendly smile!

Hike toward Alabama

Thursday, March 13 at 11:30 a.m.

photoKew Gardens Hiking

Most recent change to these details and Meetup Hike Name was on 04/07/2010 at 10:00 am. Alabama Avenue Train Station that is! Let's walk through part of Forest Park. We can then walk toward the train station. We will Hike toward Woodhaven Blvd along the bicycle path. We can walk a few of the short pieces of trails on our left side on the orange path. We will cross Woodhaven blvd and walk through the other side of the park. At the top of the hill we can decide if we wish to proceed to the train station or head back through the park. Disclaimer I: We will only continue in the direction of the Alabama station as long as there are safe park trails or streets for pedestrians to walk on and the environment feels safe. If anyone in the group feels uncomfortable, we will all turn around. Disclaimer II: There is a 10% change that my job may need me to work this Saturday. I will move this themed walk to a different week if that happens. I should know by this Wednesday. Kew Gardens Hiking now has 300+ members! Since our group is growing nicely, the organizers find that a maximum of 25 hikers helps us better manage the group. Please sign up early in the week to reserve your spot, and update your rsvp if your plans change, so someone else can take your place. We will announce some special walks in the spring when we'll have extra leaders and sweepers available so that we can raise the RSVP. Please note: We now require that all Hikers sign a waiver (called the Acknowledgment of Participant Responsibility, Express Assumption of Risk, and Release of Liability) at the start of each event. You can read the waiver on the "About" page. Get away for an hour or so from city living into our little arcadian gem -- Forest Park! We'll meet by the benches at Wallenberg Square at 10:30am. We'll wait 15 minutes and start the hike promptly at 10:45am. Look for any one of our assistant organizers, Werner, Lixandra or Annie, who will be leading the hike that day. Wallenberg Square is located at the southwest corner of Metropolitan Avenue and Park Lane South.

I'm not giving up on this, we're going to get this walk in hopefully before the year is out. Because of weather related cancellations this is the 3rd time we're trying to walk in Northport but it's definitely worth the effort. I try to post a Northport walk at least twice a year because it's very popular. We'll be following a route up Main Street and through the narrow back streets of the village. There are some hills involved but nothing we can't handle. Total distance will be about 3.5 miles. You'll be able to RSVP for this event on 3/10. Hope you can join us.---Lee (Photo credit-Carolyn)
