Who we are:

Unity Soles Hiking SpiritGroup is a community of nature lovers who seek meaningful connection—physically, emotionally, socially, and spiritually—through monthly hikes and outdoor gatherings. Whether walking the trail or sitting in the stillness, we honor the power of nature to restore, inspire, and unite.

Monthly Hikes Join us for a brisk, less-than-5-mile walk. Join our email list and check the website for upcoming hikes. 

Not a hiker? No problem! Feel free to come along even if you prefer not to hike. Bring a foldable chair, soak in the natural beauty, and enjoy the company. We simply ask that everyone use the buddy system—no one should be alone.
