Lace up those hiking boots, GVL. The South Carolina 7 (SC7) expedition team is hosting two fun and meaningful hikes this July — and you’re invited.

On Tuesday, July 8 at 9 a.m., join the team at Jones Gap State Park for a scenic four-mile hike through beautiful mountain woodlands. After the hike, ecologists from the SC Department of Natural Resources will lead an electrofishing demo, offering a behind-the-scenes look at how they study + protect our local waterways.

Then, on Wednesday, July 9 at 9 a.m., meet at the rabbit statue in Unity Park for a relaxing two-mile walk along the Swamp Rabbit Trail. Bonus: Dogs are welcome, so bring your furry hiking buddy along.

Whether you join one hike or both, it’s a great way to explore South Carolina’s natural beauty while learning about conservation, sustainability, and the benefits of spending time outdoors.

See you on the trail
