CHESTER – The Western Mass Hilltown Hikers is partnering with the Dept. of Conservation and Recreation on Jan. 1 for a guided First Day Hike beginning at 10 a.m. to the Sanderson Brook Falls in the Chester Blandford State Forest.
The 2-mile hike in Chester is part of a national First Day Hike effort to get people outside to enjoy the natural beauty of their state parks. On New Year’s Day, hundreds of free, guided hikes will be organized in all 50 states. Last year nearly 55,000 people rang in the New Year, hiking over 133,000 miles throughout the country.
