A Saturday Morning Walk in the Arb

A Saturday Morning Walk in the Arb

We will walk/hike at a moderate pace through trails in the arb. Come see the spring growth! This is my favorite park and I take you on my standard walk that I like to take in this park. Please note that this is NOT a fast paced hike.

We will only wait 5 minutes for late comers. Please allow time for parking. Walk May be cancelled due to weather

Meet at the outdoor tables at the Washington Heights entrance near the peony garden. This is the entrance near the Children's Hospital and Ronald McDonald House. This is NOT the entrance near the main hospital and the Huron River.
