Hiking, Whiskey and Bagpipes

I am a big big big supporter of Venture Outdoors – this organization exists to get anyone and everyone outside. This is my kind of hike – one that includes Whiskey and a bagpipe player.
Whiskey Tasting Hike *New Date*
Explore the highlands of Mount Lebanon on a hike through little known Bird Park. We will take a frosty walk for one hour, returning to a leader’s house for a sampling of whiskey to warm our hearts. A better evening cannot be found on this side of the Atlantic. To help us conjure the images of the Highlands, this event will feature the bagpipe player.
Location: Bird Park, South Hills
Time: 1:00 PM – 5:00 PM
Cost: $30.00 member/$50.00 non-member
