Hope Hikes: A Grief Walk w/Spring Ephemerals


Event Summary

Being in nature and in community with others has restorative effects on our mental health and wellbeing. If you are experiencing grief from the loss of a loved one or any other form of grief, join us for this restorative walk in the woods. This 1.5 to 2-mile hike will explore Oak-Hickory forest to enjoy spring ephemerals. This walk will focus on sensory experiences, awe, and community building. We will talk with each other, observe the growth of new life in the forest, and move at a relaxed pace.

This event is meant for adult or youth over 16 years.

Registration automatically closes one day in advance. If you are fully registered, you can expect to receive an email "receipt" from MyCountyParks after registration. You will also receive an email from the leading naturalist a couple days in advance of the program. If you do not receive these emails, you may not be registered; call 319-645-1011 for assistance in this case.
