About this Event
Join Compass Point, home of Dirty Girl Adventures, for some time on the trail! Join us for a morning on the Lawrence River Front Trails to breathe in the heady scents of spring. We will hike for about 2 hours, approximately 4 miles through the shade of giant cottonwood trees.
Time on the trail isn't just a fun activity. The benefits of getting outside are backed by research. Spending just one hour interacting with nature has been shown to improve memory span and attention levels by 20%. Time outside can lower your cortisol levels, reducing stress, and when you take the time to connect with nature, you also cultivate awe, and that brings optimism and positivity into your heart. WHO DOESN'T NEED A LITTLE BIT OF THAT? Come outside with us!
We highly reccommed use of bug repellent and encourage the use of Permethrine on your clothing to prevent ticks and tick bourne illnesses.
