Walk Details

Weekly walks are every Wednesday at 4 PM. We meet in Stevens Park at the Hoboken Little League Field House (corner of 5th St. and River St.). Look for a group gathering by the flagpole. From the meeting point, we walk to the Hudson River Waterfront Walkway. The walk will be about one mile and take about 30 minutes. The walkway is mostly a brick path with some sidewalk and wood sections. We finish the walk back at the meeting point. Many walkers stay to chat in the park afterward.

All paces are welcome! Depending on walker preferences, we can split into different pace groups. In the case of bad weather, we meet virtually on Google Meet. As the weather gets colder, we will plan more indoor/virtual activities.

Lifelong Learning

Beyond walking, our group embraces lifelong learning, which has incredible cognitive benefits. We are fortunate to be located close to a great learning hub - Stevens Institute of Technology! Faculty and students from the university frequently attend the weekly walks. This fall, our lifelong learning events include campus and lab tours, research seminars, and movie screenings on campus.

About SilverStrides

SilverStrides was founded by Erin Kreis, a 24-year-old social entrepreneur, doctoral researcher, and, most importantly, granddaughter. Erin was inspired by the incredible health benefits walking has had for her grandmother (who is now 95)! Together, we can take strides toward holistic, healthy aging.
