Dyke Hikes have been running for many years. The current format has been active every month, every year since 1998, and in many different shapes and forms for many years before that. We think that’s pretty cool. We’re a friendly group, happy to chat while we walk and share the joys of being outside and active. Hiking group sizes range between 4 and 18 people, mainly 10 -12 though. We generally range in age from 20’s to 60’s. All ages are welcome. From 2022 we require all hikers to be fully vaccinated for everyone’s safety. Please check hike grades to match your fitness. See below for details. Bring all the food and water you’ll need, clothes for any season, a hat and sunblock. The walks are graded as easy (okay in strong walking shoes, not many hills, good tracks), moderate (boots recommended, expect a few hills and stream crossings are possible), and hard (boots required, tracks may be rough and difficult, steep hills possible. A reasonable level of fitness will help you to enjoy these hikes). If you are not an experienced hiker, we require you to complete two moderate hikes before you join us in a hike graded hard.
