TRAINING HIKES - VARIOUS DATES & LOCATIONS

Training hikes are the best way to learn from a hike-specific personal trainer and benefit from green exercise. Research shows that exercising outdoors holds significant benefits for our physical, psychological, and spiritual health. 

Holistic hikes will more than improve your hiking fitness. It will improve your mental health, providing pragmatic and informative actionable steps to greater well-being through a holistic approach. 

Faster-paced, these hikes are a little more challenging and will run approx. 3-4hours. 

Join our monthly hikes to improve your cardiovascular training, build strength, and help develop a solid mindset.
