Hike NS Fall Guided Hike Series: Youth & Family Theme

Hike Nova Scotia and eight host organizations across the province have
partnered up to offer the 2013 Fall Guided Hike series in September and
October. There are 17 hikes led by local folks and participants qualify to
win "trail prizes." This year, many of the hikes have a Youth & Family
theme, with some featuring special activities for children and youth. Hike
NS thanks its partners for organizing the hikes on the ground and to
Backroad Mapbooks for its donations. Check out the list of events here:
