Hike Nova Scotia Announces New Program
In February 2011, Hike Nova Scotia announced its new program – a Hiker Distance Award. Pattern a bit like Hike the Highlands Festival in Cape Breton, the award program provides a lapel pin to people who hike, walk or snowshoe in Nova Scotia. There are three distances 150 km, 250 km and 500 km. You must be a member of Hike Nova Scotia ($10.00 to join) in order to register for the program. The program is an incentive and challenge to get outdoors and enjoy the many trails, walkways in Nova Scotia and be physically active.
Hikers who register will receive a link to download a file to keep track of your km or you can mail or e-mail for a hard copy log book.
Hikers can only receive one pin per year. You must register each year for the hikers distance award program. Hikers are not allowed to carry over km for the year before.
