Join us for a unique journey of the mind + spirit on May 19th at the Eagle River Nature Center, where we'll embark on the tranquil Echo Bend trail. Led by local poet, Candace Blas, this easy hike is designed not for the miles, but for the moments. It's an invitation to slow down, breathe deep, and immerse yourself in the beauty of the present.
About the Hike:
Echo Bend offers the perfect backdrop for our journey of guided observation and introspection. As we meander through the serene landscape, Candace will lead us through a series of meditations, observation exercises, and moments of deep introspection, aimed at fostering a profound connection with nature, ourselves, and those around us.
What to Expect:
- A gentle, easy-paced hike focused on mindfulness rather than distance.
- Exercises in meditation, observation, and introspection guided by Candace.
- Opportunities to journal and reflect on your experiences (notebook and pen/pencil recommended).
- A chance to connect with nature and like-minded individuals in a meaningful way.
What to Bring:
- Notebook and pen/pencil
- Wet Weather gear and/or layers
- Water + snacks
- Bear spray
This event is more than just a hike; it's an opportunity to pause, reflect, and find inspiration in the natural world. Whether you're a seasoned hiker, a lover of poetry, or someone looking to find a moment of peace in nature, this guided hike promises to be a soul-enriching experience.
Mark your calendar for May 19th at 12 PM and join us for a morning of connection and reflection at the Echo Bend trail.
