Background

NiteHike is an annual adventure for registered Scouts and Guides run overnight in the Metro Vancouver - Pacific Spirit Regional Park in April.

Participants test their mettle on about 28 fun and skill-testing stations designed and run by Venturers, Rangers, Rovers and Pathfinders spread throughout Pacific Spirit Park.

Usually about 800-1000 youth and leaders participate in the event, typically in teams of 4 to 7 people.

The hike runs all night and teams have to be prepared to deal with any weather conditions.

Participants should bring water, a cup and a snack. Hot chocolate and hot dogs are available at some stations on the hike.
