Dayton, Ohio - The Outdoor Adventure Capital of the Midwest!
The Dayton Area Backpackers & Hikers (DaytonHikers.Org) is a community of people who enjoy backpacking and hiking. Our groups meets for both day hikes and overnight backpacking trips. Come hike with us and meet other people who share a love for hiking! All interested people are welcome to join whether you are a beginner hiker or a seasoned backpacker. Our day hikes are primarily in the Dayton area and our backpacking trips are to areas within a few hours drive. Most members are from the Dayton, Ohio area but anyone is welcome to join! Come experience something new or teach the rest of us something new! Solvitur ambulando.
