Fall is here & for us that means crisp cool days on the trail, the crunch of fallen leaves under our boots! 🍁
We’re here to help you get geared up for fall hiking and backpacking season. Looking for some hiking buddies? A group hike is a great way to meet new friends — join us on one of our MANY upcoming group hike opportunities. More information and registration (if required) is available on our events page!
Happy fall, 3ROC’ers!

10/12 New Moon Headlamp Hike in Frick – HIKE TIME 7:00 – 9:00PM 

Meeting details will be emailed out prior to the event.

Join us during the October New Moon for a special edition hike in our 2023 Full Moon Headlamp Hike Series. We’ll hike together and enjoy an early fall evening in the park!

This hike is REDLAMP ONLY. White light headlamps will not be permitted on this hike. Red lamps help preserve our night vision and enhance the experience of hiking in the woods at night.

Hikers will meet at one of Frick Park’s entrances for a night hike through the woods as we experience this beloved local park in the dark! Bring a redlamp headlamp on this hike. We will also get to experience the added darkness in the park that we don’t usually get to experience during the bright full moon.

Feel free to swing by 3ROC before the hike to buy a headlamp if you need one.
NEW FOR 2023! We will have a limited number of headlamps available to rent for the hike on a first come, first served basis. Rental price is $5.

Activity Level: Moderate. We will be traversing the trails of Frick at night including some uphill sections of trail on single track trail segments.

Join us for a ~ 4 mile hike through Frick Park. We will be using a combination of main trails and more technical single track trails. This hike is appropriate for age 14 and up.

Pricing: $8 per hike early bird / $12 per hike day of event, space permitting

This event typically sells out! Please register early!

Sarah from 3 Rivers Outdoor Co. will lead the hike, so bring any gear-related questions about camping, paddling, climbing, and hiking in Western PA.
