Walk With A Doc Fort Hunter Greenbelt along the Susquehanna River

Fort Hunter Heckton Church (River Side of the Park)

This wellness Wlak With a Doc program is designed to provide some general health information and a moderately-paced walk around the Greenbelt's Fort Hunter extension.  It will be an up and back walk so participants can turn back at anytime to customize the length of their walk based on their own individual fitness needs.

Leading this walk will be Dr. Silvis.  He is a family medicine and sports medicine physician at Penn State Health.  He serves as team physician for the Hershey Bears Hockey Club and Hershey High School. He has special research interests in the care of runners and exercise across the lifespan. 

Most of the walk will be flat, 2.5 - 3.0 mile walk on slightly uneven terrain along with paved surfaces.  Restroom facilities are available at the start/end of the walk. 

The full walk is estimated to take approximately 1-hour based on the pace of the walkers. We encourage you to come out and join the walk for as long or as little as you are able.   Registration and more information is available at Dauphin County Parks website attached to this event.
