Experience the changing season during this fall outing at Shelburne Farms. The Shelburne Farms campus is a 1,400-acre working farm located on the unceded, traditional, and contemporary homelands of the Winooskik band of the Abenaki. Over 10 miles of walking trails are an integral part of connecting people to the land and fostering a sense of place, which are both central to their educational mission.

Pride Hikes are a collaboration between Audubon Vermont, the Pride Center of Vermont, and Outright Vermont.  Pride Hikes have been happening every month since June of 2018 and go beyond being "welcoming to everyone" to creating a safe, affirming space for LGBTQIA++ community members.

Trail/accessibility information: Our walk will be at an easy pace and will cover less than 2 miles. We are very flexible about the trails we choose based upon the needs of the group. Some trails are flat and wide and on a base of crushed gravel, grass or wood chips, while others are a bit more steep and uneven. Elevation gain is minimal. There are benches and sit spots available along the trail system. In the fall trails could be covered in snow, ice, or mud. Walking Trail map and more information:  https://shelburnefarms.org/visit/walking-trails Learn more about the trails and scenic points on the Happy Trails blog.

Indoor, gender inclusive restrooms are available at the Farm Barn near the Children’s Farmyard (our meet-up spot). Portolets are available at the Farm Store parking lot. 

Please wear weather-appropriate clothing and bring snacks and plenty of water!
