Summit County Fall Hiking Spree
26th year of WEX Hiking!
The Fall Hiking Spree is a series of hikes throughout the Summit County Metro Parks. If 8 designated hikes are completed by the end of November, then you earn a staff and/or a shield from the park system. The line up of specific trails is designated by the Metro Parks and we have developed our schedule from those. We also pair the hikes with lunch spots convenient to their locations.
