Take a walk on the mild side at today's walking tour of Park Hill. Via the Walk2Connect Facebook page

Life can come at you pretty fast, so sometimes it's nice to slow down, enjoy a leisurely stroll and experience life at 3mph. Today you have the opportunity to do just that by joining Walk2Connect Founder Jonathon Stalls for a northeast Park Hill walking tour that stretches from the Garden/Love, Peace, & Sol Cafe, to Mountain Fresh Market, to the new Dahlia Campus for Health & Well-Being, and through Axum Park.

Walk2Connect was launched in 2012, shortly after Stalls completed the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage in Spain and an eight-and-a-half-month, 3,030-mile walk across the United States. The Colorado-based social enterprise works to raise awareness and promote walking not only as a mode of transportation but also a healthy lifestyle, through community-focused walking trips, neighborhood walkability education and more. Walk2connect holds twenty to forty walkabouts along the Front Range each week; last year the group led over 877 walking trips. 

Today's tour through Park Hill will end back at Love, Peace, & Sol Cafe for a vegan comfort-food lunch. Interested in joining the walkabout? Meet at the Garden on East 35th Avenue and Albion Street by 10:30 a.m. with $15 cash in hand. Get all the details and learn more about the Walking Movement at walk2connect.com.
