This great annual trip is a perfect girlfriend's-getaway or a chance to come alone and make new friends.

This year, we will camp at Father Hennepin State Park, where peaceful trails weave through hardwood forests and follow the sparkling shoreline of Mille Lacs Lake. With about 4.5 miles of easy, scenic paths. Father Hennepin State Park is beautiful, and most of its trails are intentionally gentle and relatively flat. The good news is there are several more advanced or longer hiking options within about 15–90 minutes of the park.

We will be doing day trips out of our base camp at Father Hennepin.
Together, we will create hiking goals and experiences to meet your physical, mental, and emotional needs of the day.

We gather nightly around the campfire, have tons of fun. Yoga, journaling, and a worship service under the stars, are all options
