Group Hike, presented by the Latino Civic Association of Tompkins County — Sunday Sep. 20, 2026, 2:00pm-5:00pm
The Latino Civic Association (LCA) is happy to offer this group hike as part of our programming for Hispanic Heritage Month 2026!

Whether you are a seasoned outdoor enthusiast, or interested in taking your very first hike and becoming more outdoorsy, this event is for you! We will move at a slow pace, and have a "no-drop" policy (which means no one will be left behind, even if the front of the group is moving more quickly).

The hike will be led by longtime Ithaca residents and experienced hikers, Ben Ortiz (an LCA Board member) and Gladira Velázquez.

There are 20 slots available; please complete the form below to reserve your slot. It will be a first-come, first-served basis.

More info about the hike:
  • This will be a beginner-friendly hike. 
  • We will do a 2 mile route at the Six Mile Creek.
  • The starting/ parking location is the Mulholland Wildflower Preserve (501 Giles St.).
  • We will gather at the parking lot between 2pm-2:30pm, then hike until ~5pm or so.
  • Please wear comfortable shoes that you don't mind getting dirty (hiking boots or trail runners work best). Slip-on sandals, slides, and flip-flops are not ideal because they do not secure your heels.
  • Dress for the weather! Check weather reports and be sure to bring an extra layer.
  • Please bring water. A snack is also a good thing to bring.
  • It's nice, but not necessary to have: sunglasses, a charged phone, walking stick or trekking poles, camera, umbrella, binoculars, etc.
