Transportation Events

This is an external community event.

Celebrate the beauty of fall by walking a different trail every Sunday in October. With crisp air, vibrant colors, and scenic views, it’s the perfect time to get outside and get moving. Each week showcases a new trail, highlighting autumn’s most spectacular landscapes while encouraging healthy, active living.

Leashed dogs are welcome to join the fun. The first 200 participants at each location will receive a commemorative Walktober button designed by artist Alex Hamil—collect all four by attending every event!

Celebrate Walktober with a FREE nature walk at Lone Elm Park!

We will meet at the Rendezvous Shelter and go on a guided walk through the park. Along the way, we will learn about the history of the site that served as a campground and rendezvous point for travelers along the Santa Fe, Oregon, and California Trails.

Registration is not required. For more information, contact Zach Carnahan, zdcarnahan@olatheks.org.
