Carolina
Berg Wanderers
The Berg Wanderers are a Charlotte-area club formed in
the 70's by people wanting to make friends with others who enjoy outdoor
activities. 'Berg Wanderer' means mountain wanderer in German, which is
how the club was named by its founders. The Bergs are very active in many
outdoor activities throughout the year. We are a very informal, friendly
group of outdoors enthusiasts who meet monthly to plan outdoor trips to a
variety places. Our membership is as varied as our outings, which include
families, married couples and singles of all ages.
Outings regularly include hiking, backpacking, canoe/kayak paddling (flat
& whitewater), biking (street & mountain), skiing (cross-country
& downhill), camping, and whitewater rafting. Some of the unique trips
include skydiving, rock hopping, orienteering, and moonlit trips. Any and
all types of trips are possible. Sometimes there are even indoor
activities such as going to a movie, or touring a local brewery.
And we might mention, that we are pretty good eaters. Some have said we do
all these outdoor activities to keep off all the pounds we eat!
