Wildlands Conservancy is partnering with Equi-librium’s Mobile Miniature Horse Outreach Program for a truly unique event: Hike with a Mini Horse! Join
Equi-librium, Inc., along with their smallest therapy horses for an educational and recreational walk at Black River Sanctuary in Bethlehem that blends the healing power of animals with the restorative benefits of nature. 
 
Our Wildlands Conservancy educator will guide you on a 1.5 - 2 mile hike
through the preserve alongside Equi-librium’s equine companion. Please note: this trail is moderate to challenging, with rocks, roots, and some steep inclines. 
 
Walking with a miniature horse is more than just a gentle stroll, it’s a chance to slow down, reconnect, and find balance for both body and mind. At the horse’s natural pace, you’ll be encouraged to walk mindfully, breathe deeply, and notice the world around you, from the crunch of leaves underfoot to the steady rhythm of hooves beside you. Together, we’ll explore how time in nature, combined with the calming presence of horses, can reduce stress, improve well-being, and deepen our connection to the land and one another. 
 
This is a perfect outing for families, nature lovers, and anyone curious about the transformative bond between people, animals, and wild places.

Join Wildlands Conservancy for a scenic autumn hike around beautiful Lake Minsi, a popular 117-acre destination known for its fishing, birdwatching, and natural beauty.

While the trail is mostly level, the first quarter-mile is rocky. Along the way, we'll cross several small streams, visit the remains of a family-built trout nursery dating back to the 1930s, and enjoy views from the lake's West Access docks. We'll also walk across the dam and explore the spillway before returning to the East Access parking area. 
 
This hike is appropriate for all ages and offers a wonderful opportunity to enjoy nature, learn local history, and connect with fellow outdoor enthusiasts.
