Annual Hike Worcester Week

Discover Wild Worcester!

Enjoy the outdoors on trail networks that tie our neighborhoods together, and support trail upkeep by raising money to keep them in great shape for all of Greater Worcester!

Participants hike as many Hike Worcester Challenge trails as they can during the week, supported by pledges. There will be guided group hikes exclusively for participants every day — stay tuned for dates and locations!

Take up our challenge to get out and help keep Worcester wild!
