Pride Hikes: Audubon Vermont

Pride Hikes are a collaboration between Audubon Vermont, the Pride Center of Vermont, and Outright Vermont.  Pride Hikes have been happening every month since June of 2018 and go beyond being “welcoming to everyone” to creating a safe, affirming space for LGBTQIA++ community members.

LGBTQIA++ hikers are returning to Audubon Vermont’s Green Mountain Audubon Center for some birding and to explore the trails and enjoy the views.

We’ll start on the Arboretum Trail, which loops through what was once an old field. Now a healthy young forest, this area hosts a diversity of young-forest birds. From there we’ll head up to Lookout Rock, with stunning views of both Camel’s Hump and Mount Mansfield. The Spear and Hires Trails will lead us back down through hemlock, maple, and oak stands of the forest.

There will be a post-hike creemee stop in Richmond.
