Join us for a hike with a twist — a walk through nature inspired by the timeless wisdom of Stoic philosophy. Whether you're new to Stoicism or have been practicing for years, this is a chance to explore meaningful ideas, connect with others, and enjoy thoughtful conversation in a beautiful outdoor setting.

💬 Why Stoicism?
Stoicism is an ancient philosophy focused on living with wisdom, courage, justice, and self-discipline. It teaches us to focus on what we can control and to meet life’s challenges with clarity and strength. A walk in nature is the perfect setting to engage with these ideas together.
Looking forward to walking and reflecting with you!
