Embark on a reflective journey through the woods, meadows, and grounds of Edith Wharton’s estate. Join Nancy, an experienced trail guide, as she leads us In the Footsteps of Edith. Each mindful walk will begin with reading a brief passage of Wharton’s writing—a poem, letter, or excerpt from a work of fiction—to enhance your connection to nature and frame an intention for the experience. Throughout the journey, participants are welcome to share reflections.Â
This 90-minute hike takes place year-round and covers 1.5 miles on the trails of The Mount and adjacent properties. Please plan accordingly!
