- In the first part of our hike, we'll take a few minutes to walk a Labyrinth. A Labyrinth is an ancient form of silent meditation that involves moving through a series of circular paths to a center. It is one of the oldest contemplative tools known to humankind. This ancient design has been found as far back as 3000 years in a variety of forms and cultures.
