Held on the 10th of each month, these FREE Wellness Walks will take place in various Shirley Heine nature preserves throughout Northwest Indiana and will focus on a variety of conservation, physical activity and health related topics from our partners.Our last Wellness Walk of the year will take place at J. Timothy Ritchie Nature Preserve on Thursday, October 10, 2024 at noon CT.
Ritchie Nature Preserve is a hidden gem tucked away in the town of Chesterton. Autumn will bring out brilliant fall colors of beech and maple trees of this floodplain forest. This event features a casual stroll through the woods, with opportunities to chat with healthcare professionals while learning about the local ecosystem. Our hike leaders will also demonstrate how spending time outside benefits your health.
