We’ve launched the Hiking for the Holidays Online Auction and put a call out for events for our Winter Guided Hike Series. We also mourn the passing of a trail and nature champion.
Support the Hike NS Hiking for the Holidays Online Auction. Shop once and give twice: once to your loved ones and once to Hike NS. Do your holiday shopping online with us and spend more time hiking, less time shopping. From big gifts to stocking stuffers, we've got presents that hikers will love. Bidding opens Nov. 14 and ends on Nov. 28.
In late September Hike NS held a Fireside Chat with the Accessible Adventurers, part of our series of interviews with people who have interesting hike experiences and stories to share. Now you can view a recording of this informative and delightful interview. Dee Osmond and Kevin Penny are an interabled couple who post online weekly about their travel adventures and accessibility reviews.

Mourning a Trail & Nature Champion
Hike NS and many others mourn the passing of Warren Ervine, a former Hike NS board member and active trail volunteer. Warren designed Hike NS’s first logo in those early years and was quite a nature enthusiast.
Hike NS invites groups across NS to partner with it on delivering winter guided hikes or snowshoe events in winter 2021. Hike NS will help promote events and provide a how-to guide and trail prizes to giveaway.
