Goddess Hike: Black Run Preserve (Evesham Township, NJ)

Join us for our September Goddess Hike at Black Run Preserve, one of South Jersey’s most peaceful and photogenic natural spaces. This loop trail is the perfect early‑fall reset — flat, open, breezy, and surrounded by the quiet beauty of the Pine Barrens.

Black Run is known for its boardwalks, wetlands, tall pines, and wide‑open sky. It’s a trail that invites you to slow down, breathe deeper, and let the season shift you gently into autumn. After a full summer of movement, travel, and activity, this hike offers ease, grounding, and a moment to simply be held by the land.

Whether you’re joining us to reconnect, to move your body, or to enjoy a spacious Sunday morning with community, you’ll be in beautiful company.

WHAT TO EXPECT:

• A guided 4‑mile hike through the Pines
• A welcoming, supportive community of Black women hikers
• Gentle grounding moments to open and close our time together
• A pace that balances movement, conversation, and reflection
• Wild blueberries often line the trail in July

This is one of our most accessible hikes — perfect for beginners, returning hikers, or anyone wanting a gentle, grounding outdoor experience.

MEET-UP DETAILS:

8:45 AM — We gather, greet, stretch, and set intentions before stepping onto the trail. For safety reasons, exact trail details will be shared in the event reminder sent on the Friday before the hike.

WHO THIS IS FOR:

Black women seeking community, joy, grounding, and movement in nature. Whether it’s your first hike or your fiftieth, you are welcome here.

WHY WE GATHER:

Camping Noire hikes are designed to offer more than miles — they offer space. Space to breathe, to reconnect, to be witnessed, and to move at a pace that honors your body. Every hike is an invitation to return to yourself and to the land.

Come as you are. Leave a little lighter, a little clearer, and a little more connected!

See you on the trails!
