This year, the Davis County Health Department and USU Extension are partnering to combine our walking programs into one engaging, community-based experience. Join us for in-person walks or participate wherever you are by tracking your own steps. In alignment with Live On Utah, we're strengthening our commitment to movement, mental well-being, and social connection. Visit liveonutah.org to learn about local resources and learn how social connection can prevent suicide.
These community walks are open to anyone who wants to spend time outdoors, stay active, and connect with others. Regular physical activity is one of the most effective ways to support overall health. Walking, in particular, can help reduce the risk of chronic disease, boost energy levels, ease stress and anxiety, and promote feelings of joy, happiness, and peace of mind.
Each walk will begin with a brief spotlight on simple, practical ways to support overall well-being, followed by a group walk.
Walks are held every other Wednesday throughout the summer. There is no fee to participate, but we encourage you to pre-register to receive important details, including parking and meeting location information.
