Already getting sick of the city life? Eager to explore beyond E and K streets? Love the smell of the Shenandoah river in the morning? Hike with the Honors Program!
On Sunday, April 7th, the Honors Program is hosting a $7 hike with the honors community and certified TRAiLS guides. We’re going to Old Rag. The Old Rag hike is a trademark favorite for DC hikers and features challenging rock scrambles and stunning views of the Shenandoah valley. Located in the heart of Shenandoah National Park the mountain trail has a fun 2 mile section of scrambling and sliding through and around granite boulders on the way to the summit.
We will be meeting at 8:30AM at the Honors townhouse and breakfast will provided before we get on the bus. We will hike the 9 mile loop that extends around Old Rag which features narrow passageways, rock scrambles, and gorgeous views of the Shenandoah valley. Lunch will be provided. After completing the 9 mile circuit we will drive back to campus arriving approximately at 6:00 PM.
