Story Walk™ has taken off and is sweeping Vermont, New Hampshire and now York. We are excited to be continuing this self-guided fitness element in our recreation line-up. The Story Walk™ program combines the benefits of physical activity, time outdoors in nature, literacy and family time by taking children’s books and posting them, in pieces, along a recreational path or hiking trail. What better place for a Story Walk™ than the scenic vistas, rich forests and secluded trails of Mount Agamenticus?
Join us throughout the fall as we present In A Nutshell by Joseph Anthony along the Ring trail. Be sure to look for the sign letting you know that your Story Walk™ is about to begin and follow the story as it guides you to the summit of Mt. A. Please be sure to let us know about your experience in our visitor journal at the end of your hike. Enjoy!
The Ring Trail is a family friendly hiking trail. You should plan to wear comfortable shoes/sneakers with support. Flip flops and crocs might not be the best choice here.
