Hike Barnstable

"I took a walk in the woods and came out taller than the trees."

- Henry David Thoreau  

Celebrating its fourth year, Hike Barnstable is growing—now spanning May (National Walking Month) and June (National Great Outdoors Month). Supported in part by Cape Cod Healthcare, this expanded initiative offers 30+ programs designed to get people of all ages and abilities outside exploring Barnstable’s natural spaces through hikes, walks, talks, and more.

In honor of Barnstable’s MA250 celebration, this year’s BLT hiking challenge salutes 1776: hike 17.76 miles during the program to earn a certificate and qualify for a special gift package.
