2025 Wellness Walks

Enjoy a moderately paced volunteer-led walk around Wildwood Lake while enjoying the trees and animals at the park. This will be a walk on paved, gravel, and dirt surfaces. You can choose to walk only a portion of the way and then turn around at any point if you would like to customize the length of your walk to your individual fitness goals. A great way to walk with a group and stay committed year-round! What to know before you go: Sneakers or comfortable walking shoes are recommended We encourage you to bring a bottle of water to stay hydrated  A restroom is available at the walking site Dogs are welcome as long as they are on a leash Children are welcome but must be accompanied by a responsible adult Free parking is available  NOTE: These WALKS WILL NOT OCCUR IF THE WEATHER IS INCLEMENT OR IF THERE IS SNOW OR ICE ON THE TRAIL.
