Fire Island 2-Day Trek

On the Fire Island Trek, you'll experience miles of wide open beaches, interspersed with the sights and sounds of Fire Island National Seashore's developed areas--Watch Hill, Barrett Beach, Sailors Haven, Fire Island Lighthouse--and the 17 Fire Island communities and other small settlements between them. 

 

The Fire Island Trek is a two day, thirteen mile hike beginning at the Watch Hill Visitor Center and ending at the Fire Island Lighthouse. The Trek is open to anyone who can meet the physical demands of the program: walking 13 miles in 2 consecutive days, walking long distances in loose sand and being exposed to the elements including the sun, wind and possibly rain.

Limited logistical support is available, but you must pay for some meals along the way. A $85.00 fee is charged for this program to cover the costs of lodging, some meals, ferry and logistical support. Registration is required as space is limited. Applications are accepted on a first come, first served basis.
