Welcome to the Narragansett Chapter Young Members 20s/30s Meetup! This Meetup is sponsored by the Narragansett Chapter of the Appalachian Mountain Club (Joining this Meetup Group does not automatically make you an AMC member).
Our trip leaders host local hikes, bike rides, and social events aimed at outdoorsy 20-40ish years old. We offer activities throughout RI and surrounding areas both after work and on the weekends. Joining a YM activity is a great way to make new friends and explore the area's natural beauty.
The purpose of our Meetup is to introduce others to the wonderful outdoor opportunities offered by the AMC Narragansett Chapter Young Members 20s/30s. As a Meetup member, you have no obligation to join the AMC.But, if you enjoy participating in our events, we hope you will consider joining the AMC (https://www.outdoors.org/join-today?chapter=NA&campaign=70150000001EMs5AAG).
Please, only RSVP if you plan on attending the event. For the consideration of our leaders, we ask that you contact us if you have RSVP'ed and can no longer attend.
Our events are led by highly qualified, trained AMC volunteers who are always concerned about safety. They take every precaution to assure participant risk is minimized and fun is maximized.

Audience: 20’s & 30’sDescription: Flow with the Forest: A Mindful Walk through Destruction Brook Woods (Where quiet paths awaken the senses and every step reconnects you with the earth)
Here, where the whisper of leaves replaces the city’s hum, the rhythm slows. The trail winds through tall pines and soft moss, carrying the scent of rain and earth. Each step becomes a breath—steady, grounded, alive.
Destruction Brook Woods is where stillness and movement meet: wooden bridges over calm streams, sunlight flickering through the canopy, and the sound of your footsteps blending with birdsong. It’s a place to wander without hurry, to feel the quiet strength of nature around you.
As you walk, let the forest guide your attention—the crunch of leaves beneath your feet, the cool air against your skin, the patterns of light shifting across the path. This isn’t just a trail—it’s an invitation to return to presence.
