Accept the #homehikechallenge and use the links below to help you find places near you to hike and recreate safely during COVID-19.  Try both statewide agencies and land trusts as well as regional land trusts, and don't forget your own town!  Most municipalities have some open lands or a town forest with hiking trails- check with your town's conservation commission or recreation department.  Stay healthy, Stay Active, and Stay Safe!
