Prospective new members: Don't be misled if our schedule is sparse. We have an outing virtually every week, sometimes two, but our leaders tend to wait till a few days before to decide where to go and post their outings, especially when the weather is changeable.

May 9, 2024 Alternate Saratoga Battlefield Hike Rating: Easy Sharon Gavitt 518 281-1474 Email leader WX
A favorite hike for many of us the Wilkinson Trail at the Saratoga National Historic Park (Battlefield) is a lollipop-shaped trail that follows the same path where soldiers marched to and from battle, named after British Lieutenant William Wilkinson who mapped the path in 1777. The path itself is a little over 4 miles long with some small hills and several interpretive stations on the way, allowing for a slow pace and lots of time to visit and contemplate the history of the area. Lunch is planned on the patio of the Visitor Center (VC) after the hike.
Meet at the Park’s VC at 10:00. For those of you who have access to a GPS, the address is 648 Route 32, Stillwater, NY 12170. Please contact me with any questions. NOTE - Regular hikes, paddles, or bike rides can be scheduled on this date in conjunction with this Alt. Hike.
