About our club: We hike Mondays and Wednesdays of each week, beginning November through April. Mondays we hike at three different skill levels (mellow, moderate, and motivated). Wednesdays is a single hike for moderate hiking skill level.

The club is a great way to spend time with others while seeing parts of the Valley and beyond that you might not get to see otherwise, like Woods Canyon Lake. We are a friendly, inclusive group that welcomes all able-bodied hiking enthusiasts! Check out our website at meetup.com/sun-lakes-hiking-club to view descriptions of our hikes and some great photos that club members post.
