Day Hike Volunteer

Description

group of hikers
Calling all hiking enthusiasts! Join us in introducing the community to hiking in Oregon's wonderful outdoors. Hike volunteer leaders will assist Willamalane staff on moderate to strenuous hikes with check in, help "sweep" the hiking group, and may also contribute to choosing hike locations. All hikes will meet in the Bob Keefer lobby and depart and return from there.

Multiple hikes are offered over May - August. To volunteer, "respond" to the hiking shift below that you plan to help with and Willamalane program staff will follow up with you. If the spots are full, you are encouraged to click on "waitlist" to secure a volunteer spot if one opens up.

The hike locations are as follows: 

Note: Hike locations are subject to change based on air quality. 

Cape Perpetua - August 22

Goodman Creek-August 29

Dee Wright Observatory and Proxy Falls-September 12

Diamond Creek Falls-September 26

Blue Pool-October 10
