There’s no better way to share your love of wilderness than to lead a hike.
To lead a FSPW hike, you don’t have to be a fast hiker or an expert outdoors person. All you need is a familiarity with the trail and enthusiasm for leadership.
Leaders can guide a hike in the Scotchmans at any time of the year. You can lead a hike in the summer or a snowshoe adventure in the winter.
Leading a hike for FSPW is an easy and fun 4 step process:
- Plan your trip.
- Submit your plan to FSPW staff.
- Coordinate with hikers before your adventure.
- Hike and be merry!
We accept hike leader applications on a rolling basis. But please submit your application at least 2 weeks before your intended hike date.
For more information, take a peek at the Hike Leader Packet. If you have any questions, contact us at info@scotchmanpeaks.org
“I lead hikes for FSPW as my way to help others get out into this amazing wilderness for the first time or the hundredth time. Getting to see a fellow hiker experience a new area, new trail, or just a new season as a trail leader is the most rewarding thing.” – Jamilee, volunteer hike leader
