Join Shelly and Margaret for this Hike
This event is limited to 20 members.
We will be hiking the trails in Oatka Park, a Monroe County Park, located about 20 miles southwest of Rochester. Hiking time will be about 1.5 hours – 3 miles – but we can hike more if desired.
Description of Trails in Oatka Creek Park: Generally considered an easy route, there are diverse environments to hike: woods, meadows, or along the creek. Rated: C mostly easy, there are a couple brief spots where poles might be helpful. Also the trail along the creek has lots of roots to step over however we could take a parallel trail that does not have as many tree roots to step over.
