Annual Spring Hike at Blue Hills Reservation
Come spend the day with us in nature as we hike the beautiful trails of Blue Hills Reservation together. The pace will be relaxed and welcoming, with plenty of space to walk beside others, chat, reflect or simply take in the woods quietly at your own pace.
Along the way to the top of the hill, we’ll pause at three special spots for our Calling of Their Names ritual, a meaningful time to speak the names of the people we carry with us and honor their presence together. Many people find this day grounding and healing. Being outdoors, moving our bodies and sharing space with others who understand can offer relief, connection and comfort.
Whether this is your first hike with us or a tradition you return to each year, you are welcome.

Please arrive at least 15 minutes prior to find parking and locate us.
