First Day Hikes 2026!
Thursday, January 1, All Day, but see special times
Join us at one of the listed state parks on January 1st, 2025 to start your new year off with some outside time!
Check out details for start times and hike descriptions. This year we have a more interactive map for visitors to search for hikes by park name, county and region.
Visitors can also type in their address and it will show nearby hikes taking place.
Participants are also able to see the status of the hike and the last time it was updated, and by zooming into the map, they can find hikes taking place near that region of the map.
Additionally, this webpage provides information on new hiking opportunities around the holiday.
