Bedford Hiking Club To Host Volksmarch In French Lick Saturday

Last updated on Thursday, April 14, 2016

(FRENCH LICK) - The Bedford Hiking Club is hosting a Volksmarch in French Lick on Saturday.

Registration will take place from 9 a.m. until Noon inside the Convention Center of the French Lick Springs Hotel.

Walkers must complete the walk by 3 p.m.

Both a 10-kilometer and 5-kilometer version of the walk will be offered.

The walk takes people past the two historical hotels in the Valley, French Lick Springs and West Baden Springs, as well as many other interesting attractions in the two towns.

Volkswalks are not timed events, but to encourage people to get out and walk interesting routes in local communities. Commemorative patches are available for those who do the walk.

The Bedford Hiking Club also sponsors two other walks: one at Spring Mill State Park in Mitchell and the Limestone Walk in Bedford. The Spring Mill walk has been voted as one of the Top 10 walks nationally. Instructions for this walk may be picked up at the Spring Mill Inn. Directions for the Limestone Walk in Bedford are at Hardee's on 16th Street.

For more information on any of these volkswalks or for a schedule of the club's weekly walks, visit the Bedford Hiking Club website: www.bedfordhikingclub.com.
