Join Jessica for an easy walk at Waneka Lake and around Hecla Lake near Hygiene. The hike is around 3 miles, but there is an option of just going around Waneka Lake and returning to the car in about 1.2 miles, rather than the entire 3 miles. This is flat terrain around two lakes with great views to the mountains and good opportunities to view birds and other wildlife.
As always, Live By Living day hikes are open to all cancer survivors and their caregivers. Kids welcome, too! Regardless of whether you are currently in or out of treatment, we'd love to have you join us. Questions? Contact us.
