What is National Hike With A Geek Day?
The techies, geeks, IT gurus, and gamers are encouraged to take a Geek Day on June 20th to step out into the stunning landscapes of nature, rather than desk exercise.

The day isn't limited to the tech-savvy who code in code. Nor is it limited to emoticon-loving, web-surfing fact finders. If you've ever texted your significant other from another room or checked to see if Alexa has the ability to restart the dryer, you obviously meet the requirements for this occasion. Both as a way to unplug from technology and to re-engage with the people around them, #HikeWithAGeekDay is a call to all those who can pronounce osmium correctly the first time, number crunchers, and every field of scientific research to refresh and stretch their horizons.
This is also the summer solstice, which takes place on June 20th. It's the perfect time to bring your nearest, dearest geek, and brave the neighboring wilderness for some adventure.
