DETAILS

Aimed at writers from all genres, this event is great for those looking for a change in their writing routine, one that literally adds forward movement, gets them outside, and introduces them to a community of fellow writers to support, provide perspective, and cheer on. This workshop aims to be inclusive to people’s physical needs and is offered at varying ability levels. Check event specifics for more details of each event. All group members must be able to walk at least one mile and have the ability to be on their feet for up to an hour. These events are open to all ages (minors must be accompanied by parents or guardians) and all writing levels. The two-hour event includes a walk through a natural setting. While hiking, the host will provide prompts based on the landscape and flora of the hike. The goal of this walking workshop is to provide a different setting to provoke inspiration and hopefully forward movement in stagnant work. It is also a great chance to grow your writing community, find support, have a dedicated writing time, and a chance to experience new settings around Reno. The host, Helena Guglielmino is a freelance writer whose work has appeared in Wide Open Spaces, Outdoors, Save the Redwoods League, and more. She currently writes the monthly outdoor column for Reno News & Review. Urban Trails, Reno is her forthcoming hiking guide (Fall 2025) that explores 42 trails close to home. Space is limited. Registration closes 24 hours prior to the hike.
