nature walk

Trail through woods

A nature walk is a leisurely outing through natural surroundings—woods, parks, trails—typically for exercise, relaxation, or observing wildlife and plants.

Unlike hiking, the emphasis is on gentle pace and appreciation rather than physical challenge: The class went on a nature walk to identify local birds.

Often led by guides at parks or nature centers.
