- Walking Club
-

Several times each week OLLI members walk various trails around Tallahassee. Pick your group based on your pace and type of walking surface: even-paced (mostly on paved surfaces) or more challenging (somewhat rugged trails). Benefit from two keys to longevity – social connections and physical exercise.
