Event Details

Join us for YNPN Boston's first ever hike in The Blue Hills Reservation on Saturday, August 21st!

This is a great chance to get outside for a leisurely hike, explore a great spot just south of Boston (with a great view of the city), and meet other young professionals working for, volunteering for and supporting nonprofits around the Boston area. Whether you want to pass around your business card while traversing the Skyline Trail or just chill out and socialize, this is your chance to do a little networking while not holding a beer and finger food!

 

When: Saturday, August 21st, 9am - 12:30pm

Who should come: People of all hiking ability levels, their dogs, their significant others and friends

Transportation: There will be easy carpooling, so don't worry if you don't have a car of your own. We'll meet up a little before 9 and drive down to Milton together (about 15 minutes). Location of carpooling to be announced.

Availability: There will be limited spots in the carpool, so sign up early to reserve a spot.

 

More details

Once you sign up, we'll send a follow-up email with more details about where we'll meet and what you should think about bringing.

 

About The Blue Hills:

"Located only minutes from the bustle of downtown Boston, the DCR Blue Hills Reservation stretches over 7,000 acres from Quincy to Dedham, Milton to Randolph, providing a green oasis in an urban environment. Rising above the horizon, Great Blue Hill reaches a height of 635 feet, the highest of the 22 hills in the Blue Hills chain. From the rocky summit visitors can see over the entire metropolitan area. With its scenic views, varied terrain and 125 miles of trails, the Blue Hills Reservation offers year-round enjoyment for the outdoor enthusiast"
