Urban Walk - Woodland Park

An early morning urban wander through parts of four neighborhoods. We’ll make a relaxed loop through quiet residential streets and parks. Expect a slow, conversational pace with time to notice the small joys in this part of the city. This trip is timed to try to take advantage of peak bloom at the Woodland Park Zoo rose garden.
