Bites & Hikes – Walking routes Accordion Closed
Walking is a great way to get exercise and the Northern Arizona University campus is a beautiful place to walk! We have designed six walking routes across campus, that are perfect for a quick afternoon pick-me-up or a relaxing stroll with a friend. After exploring, refuel at any of the convenient dining spots around campus.
Walking has the lowest dropout and injury rates of all exercise programs, is easy, convenient and inexpensive — all you need is a good pair of shoes. Walking can help you:
- improve your health
- tone muscles
- lose weight
- reduce stress
- improve your sleep
- stay mentally alert
