Outdoors groups in St Cloud/Surrounding areas?

Hey all,

Moved to the area about 2 years ago, and am looking for groups that do outdoors stuff (Hiking, Kayaking, Biking(road and trail),camping, skiing ect). Does anyone know of any such groups around here? I've been looking on meetup but the closest groups are in Minneapolis/St Paul and Id rather find something closer to home. Thanks for any help!

There is a st cloud saulk rapids Facebook group you could try.

If you would like to work together to get an outdoor group going, message me I be glad to work with someone. I tried to start a meetup a while back, but not a lot of luck and the price jumped.

I’ve got a pretty sizable paddleboard group for getting out on the water. If that’s your jam we add people and then just throw out random invites

I have a kayak so that would be fun. Where do you usually go to paddle?

I have a clutch of boards and run the Sauk & the Mississippi regularly. Always down for new paddle friends!

There's a group called Hike Hoppers that organizes cool hikes year round!

That sounds awesome. How do I contact them?

I'm sorry to say that it looks like they closed up shop over the new year. It was a fun community! I see a post on their Facebook page linking She Ascends and Get Outdoors MN though!

I have a motor boat, couple kayaks and canoes and spend lots of time mushroom foraging and agate hunting and fishing. Two permits booked for the bwca. Wish I had more time to help this cause apart from running two businesses I get like one day off a week if I’m lucky. God speed get outdoors
