National event encourages everyone to explore their local trails, kicking off summer fun.
American Hiking Society’s National Trails Day kicks off the summer season by encouraging everyone to “find your trail.” On June 4, join your fellow Americans enjoying trails all across the country and hit the trails right here in the Irvine Ranch Natural Landmarks.
Each year for the past 24 years, American Hiking Society — along with local outdoors clubs, businesses, conservation organizations, and parks — have invited the public to attend special trail events on National Trails Day. Activities include recreational opportunities such as hikes, bike rides, trail runs, horseback rides, paddle trips, and kid-specific activities. Other events offer stewardship projects including trail maintenance, habitat restoration, and park cleanups.
