The Royal Walkers

Get moving, make connections, and experience the Gardens in a whole new way. The Royal Walkers is a free walking program for Rotary Botanical Gardens members, running April 7 through October 31.

Join us Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday mornings from 9:00 to 10:00 AM for a guided 4-mile walk through the Gardens led by Walking Ambassador Dale Griffa. Dale brings expertise in walking form and posture to help you move safely while pointing out garden highlights along the way. A shorter 2-mile route is available for those who prefer it.

The Royal Walkers is designed to be a digital-free experience. We encourage participants to set aside phones and headphones and focus on movement, nature, and community.

Water bottle

Rewards: Complete 10 walking days and earn a Royal Walkers t-shirt.
