About Xtreme Hike

Every Xtreme Hike participant is committed to helping advance a cure for cystic fibrosis. By joining us at 2024 Metro DC Xtreme Hike you can help us reach this lifesaving goal.

What Makes Our Hike Unique

The Metro DC Xtreme Hike is a fully supported hike that is structured to be 3 legs that start & end in the same place. If the need arises, hikers may stop hiking at any rest stop. Hikers may choose between different route lengths based on comfort & skill level. Training hikes are led by our Volunteer Leadership Team monthly. For any questions, please email Lexie Hill, lhill@cff.org].

Included in the Hiker's Journey

All hikers will enjoy accommodations for three days and two nights at Canaan Valley Resort in Davis, WV.

This 3-day experience includes an energizing, pre-hike pasta party, pre-hike breakfast, post party dinner and a “Victory” breakfast on Sunday.

At the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, we commit to equity, racial justice, diversity, and inclusion as core principles guiding our efforts to provide all people with CF the opportunity to live long, fulfilling lives. We strive to host inclusive and accessible events that enable all individuals to engage fully.
