About the event
Join "Barefoot Ken" at 8:45am on Sunday June 1 at Harriman State Park, NY for an introduction to barefoot hiking and experience the mindfulness and mental calmness of grounding. This beginner-friendly adventure takes place on well-maintained trails in Harriman State Park, offering a chance to reconnect with nature like you did as a kid. Barefoot, shoes, sandals, and Vibram FiveFingers (VFFs) are welcome. The hike will be an easy-paced, 5-mile saunter over three small mountains, starting from the Lake Skanatati parking area. Receive training tips from Barefoot Ken, who has climbed 485 mountains barefoot and completed 115 races—24 of them marathons or ultras—without shoes.
