You don’t need to be hardcore to love the outdoors. We celebrate the kind of adventures where the snacks matter just as much as the summit.

Day Hikes
(It’s okay to do it for the snacks)
From hiking for beginners to section hiking the AT. We offer both classes and group outings! Get outside and make new friends!
Night Hikes
(Not a Jordan Peele movie)
Enjoy an evening out that doesn’t involve waiting in line at the bar or long term hearing loss with a sunset hike and a view of the stars! Finish up with a Geek’s tradition, s’mores!
Curated Hikes
(curated: a word which here means… WHATEVER YOU WANT!)
Enjoy a custom hike designed by the Geeks around your groups needs! From romantic sunset hikes with a picnic summit (we offer EXCELLENT picnic add-ons), to week long backpacking trips where we do the planning and prep for you!
