Forestville First Day Hike cancelled
FORESTVILLE — The annual First Day Hike in Forestville has been cancelled due to a storm warning.
The event is scheduled each year in conjunction with the National State Parks’ celebration of hiking trails and historic sites throughout the state. Forestville’s event is organized by Imagine Forestville.
There are other locations across New York and throughout the country that celebrate First Day Hikes. The walks and hikes are family-friendly and typically range from one to five miles depending on the location and conditions. Hikes are planned at state parks and historic sites, Department of Environmental Conservation lands, wildlife areas, Forest Preserve trails, canal trails, towpaths, and environmental education centers.
The Forestville Hiking Trail is located at 11014 Walnut St, approximately a quarter-mile from Route 39 in the hamlet of Forestville. The trail is approximately one mile long and takes about 45 minutes to complete.
