Spring is right around the corner which means there will be more opportunity to be active outdoors!

One of the best activities we can do as active agers is to trail hike. Walking on the uneven terrain strengthens the feet, ankles, hips, and pelvic floor. It also helps us with balance. Trail hiking connects us with nature which can reduce stress hormones. And let’s not forget the cardiovascular benefits!

We are so fortunate to have unlimited hiking trails in the Boise area, so there is lots of variety from easy to hard depending on your experience.

Hike with a friend and use safe hiking practices. Get out and enjoy the great outdoors!
