Maricopa County Parks and Recreation: Silent Walking – A Beginner’s Guide to Connecting with Nature
December 20, 2023 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
Free with Park Fee
Join Ranger Kevin as we learn how to make – or strengthen – our connection with nature through the practice of Silent Walking and Sit Spots. This is a beginner’s level class, so anyone who is interested in cultivating the skills needed to appreciate the natural world in greater depth is welcome. We will learn to relax, change our mindset, and allow our senses to unlock a closer and clearer experience of the Sonoran Desert. This program includes a 15-minute walk on the Palm Walk trail, which is a very easy, flat trail. Please wear closed-toe shoes, and bring water. Hats and sunscreen are recommended. Restrooms and water are available at the Visitor Center. Please, NO pets.
