Healing Hike - Downtown Urban Hike

All ability levels are welcome. This is a healing hike so the pace will be slower and we will stop here and there. Macon Mental Health Matters will have counseling professionals on hand.

We will be hiking in downtown Macon and meeting at Rosa Parks Square at Poplar and 1st and across from City Hall. Since this will be a Sunday, you will not need to pay for parking.

We will be doing 1.5-2 miles on paved sidewalks. This can be done with a cane or trekking poles, if needed.

What to bring:

Water - always bring more than you think you'll need

Closed-toe shoes - tennis shoes work just fine

Moisture wicking clothing, layers if it is cooler - workout clothing works well

Sunscreen if needed

Journal, if you like

Pack to carry it all - this doesn't have to be anything fancy, it just gets annoying to carry a water bottle through the whole hike. Plus, how else will you carry your snacks?

This link will take you to a liability waiver - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1c28dKFe1wYnQWW9p9ZnOMqANLA13OFs-kPaV3GmrNCg/edit?usp=sharing By signing up, you agree to the waiver.

Since this is a healing hike, we sometimes discuss heavy topics. If you would like to make us aware of any triggers or traumas, please do so at the beginning of the hike.

Afterwards, we typically grab some food at Macon Bagels, feel free to join us.
