If these typical outings interest you, you may wish to become a member of the RTA.
As a member you will receive the quarterly newsletter which includes a list of all the hikes, social activities for the season, news from each of the clubs, and other interesting and informative articles.

Outings in the Kingston club are generally organized for Saturdays and/or Sundays. On some weekends multiple activities take place. These events are organized well in advance of the day, and are held at a definite location on the trail or at some of the many scenic places around the Kingston area.

An active group of hikers - The Wednesday Walkers - meet every Wednesday at 1:30 PM, however, on the second Wednesday of each month, an all-day outing is scheduled.

RTA organized outings commence with all participants gathering at the club's meeting location. From there, those without transportation or who wish to do so, car-pool with other drivers to the starting point for the outing. Times displayed for each outing are departure times from the meeting place and are strictly adhered to.

All outings for each season are described in the quarterly newsletter where additional details may be found. Further details on these hikes may also be had by telephoning the Kingston 24-hour Infoline at (613) 545-0823

Note that outings which require RSVP are not listed on the website.

It's important to arrive properly prepared for the outing, so please consult the leader if you have questions.
