Join us in Winter Woods Mindfulness Night Hike, presented by Mercy Health, for a full mind, body and wellness experience. Explore the winter woods at night with a self-guided mindfulness walk through the beautiful Oak Openings Preserve Metropark. Hikers will follow a marked trail at their own pace, with mindfulness stops and prompts along the way to encourage nature enjoyment.

Come to the Wheelhouse early from 6:30-7PM and chat with cardiologists at Mercy Health; Dr. Hemindermeet Singh, Dr. Guneet Ahluwalia, and Dr. Khalid Minhas. If you would like to hike in a large group, the 7PM session will be open to as many hikers that would like to join. The remaining sessions will be smaller for those that would like to hike in smaller groups or on their own.

At the end of your hike stop by the Wheelhouse for a campfire, s'mores and conversation with other hikers.

This free program is part of a collaborative campaign between Metroparks Toledo and Mercy Health that promotes the power of parks in improving the community’s mental and physical well-being.
