Overview

Hike 3 of the New England Challenge, an interchapter hike with Western Mass, and it's going to be nice and chill for after work on a Friday! We're going to tackle the Royalston Falls (a 45 foot waterfall in a gorge!) + the option to hike a portion of Warwick State Forest by hiking MA Section 19 and potentially parts of MA Section 18. Minimum mileage option (Section 19): 1.9 mi, 300 ft elevation gain Maximum mileage option (Section 18 +19): 7.5 mi, 1500 ft elevation gain This is Hike 2 in our New England Trail Challenge hiking series: There're so many lists and patches you can get from hiking in New England, but we bet you haven't heard of this one; the challenge requires you to hike 50 or 100 miles of the New England Trail (either the same section or different sections) by December 31, 2024. Once you complete this requirement, you can submit your successful completion of the challenge photos on line through the NET website. We are hosting this hike to get to a total of 100 miles this summer, so if you are interested in joining the challenge, you can sign up (it's FREE) using the links below through NET and register for any of our hikes that say "New England Trail Challenge" throughout the year. You don't have to go through these big objectives alone!
