In Nature | Welcome |
Diverse paths of wisdom toward an earth
restored...
Come join our path center at Spirit in Nature.
Immerse yourself in nature by walking any of
the 10 different paths.
Each path is 1/2-2 miles long and includes
posted sayings along the way to remind you how
deeply connected faith tradition is to nature.
Learn. Meditate. Relax. Enjoy.
After walking the paths, come to the peaceful
Sacred Circle, a large 60-foot diameter circle
surrounded by towering white pines.
Spirit in Nature is located on 70 acres behind
the Robert Frost Trail, with 9000 feet of river
and brook frontage in mixed forest and open
areas.
Open year around, dawn to dusk, in winter for
walking, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing.
Admission by donation.
