Welcome to the official website of the Wilmington Trail Club!

The Wilmington Trail Club is an organization of people who live in and around the Wilmington, Delaware area that participate in a variety of outdoor activities such as Hiking, Paddling, Biking, and Skiing.

The club schedules almost 400 events each year. Single day trips, trips of several days for backpacking, kayaking, canoeing, cross-country skiing and car and canoe camping. Most events are in Delaware, Pennsylvania or Maryland. Some events extend to other parts of the U.S. (Virginia, New York, New Hampshire) and the World. Trip leaders are club members who contribute their time, expertise, and effort.

On this website you'll find all kinds of information about understanding these activities and getting involved. So take a look around, we hope you like what you see!

National Trails Day Report

Theme: Find your happy place! :)

Saturday, June 5 was hot and humid, but, 32 participants (27 members and five nonmembers) showed up for the selection of three Work hikes and one regular SOS hike. Nine hikers hiked the Gold trail in WCCSP Carpenter area and trimmed a couple of troublesome areas. Nine hikers trimmed the HorseShoe Trail from FCSP to Warwick County Park. Six of those hikers continued an additional six miles to Welkenweir Natural Area. Ten hikers (five members and five non-members) met at BCSP and split into three groups to trim and clean trails there. Turnout for the SOS hike in the afternoon was a bit disappointing (four hikers) but they enjoyed their hike.
