July Senior Hike: Murphy-Hanrehan Park Reserve

The July Senior Hike will take place at the Murphy-Hanrehan Park Reserve in Savage, MN. Maps and directions for the Murphy-Hanrehan Park Reserve can be found here.

The hiking group will meet at 10 a.m. on Thursday, July 22nd at the Murphy Lake parking area located on Murphy Lake Blvd, 2.5 miles south of the main cross country skiing trailhead located just off of Hanrehan Lake Blvd. The hiking route leads down a wide dirt trail through a mix of open and wooded oak savanna and wetlands. The lakes and long vistas are to be savored! The group will hike up to 2 hours. There are several optional cutoffs with good signage that can shorten the hike duration if desired. This trail is classified as mild to moderately rigorous with just a few hills. Bring you own water as there is none available at the trailhead. Tom Saterstrom will be leading this hike. Please RSVP to Tom if you plan to participate. You can call him on his cell at 952-239-3629 or you can email him at saterstromtom@yahoo.com.
