  Step off the pavement and into the wild...
Join us for A Walk in the Woods—a quick-paced, energizing hike through the Arboretum’s scenic and less-traveled trails. We’ll wind through wooded paths, shaded by tall trees and dotted with gentle inclines and twists. Expect a real-deal nature immersion—right in the heart of Houston!

🥾 What to Expect:
🚶‍♂️ 3–4 miles at a brisk but conversational pace (22–25 min/mile)
🌿 Natural surface trails — expect roots, turns, and light elevation
🤝 No-drop hike — we stay together and no one gets left behind
🧍‍♀️ Ideal for moderately active hikers and outdoor social butterflies

⏰ Arrive Early!
There are 2 paid parking lots at the Arboretum. Plan to arrive by 9:30 AM to park, pay the $6.50 fee, and walk to the Nature Center where we’ll meet.

🎒 What to Bring:
✅ Sturdy walking shoes
✅ Water (hydration is key!)
✅ Bug spray & sunscreen
✅ Layers (optional, depending on weather)
✅ Well-behaved dog? Bring them!
🚫 No kids, please — this is an adults-only event.

🅿️ Parking Info:
• $6.50 parking fee (credit card only via kiosk or app)
• Allow time to park and walk to the Nature Center

Where to Meet:

- Dogs are welcome for responsible dog owners. Do not let your dogs go up to people or other dogs.

🚫 Adults Only:
We are an adult-only social club. No kids — just good company and outdoor adventures with fun-loving grownups. 😄
