Welcome to Hikes & Hops!

I started this blog in 2021 with the aim of finding the perfect pairing for every trail and craft brewery. My quest has led me and my husband across 14 states and 11 national parks so far – and I’m only getting started. When I’m not grabbing a pint at one of her favorite breweries or hiking around the 124 state parks of PA, you can find me trail running with my local Trail Sisters group, cultivating my flower garden, or nestled in with a good book at the library.

In March 2025, my first hiking guide, Beer Hiking Pennsylvania and New Jersey, was published!

Have a favorite brewery or hike that I should check out? Please let me know and I may feature it on the blog!
