What is the Challenge?
The Nature Wanderer Challenge is meant to get you outdoors exploring the nature around you. All you are required to do is spend at least 500 hours over a year exploring nature. That’s a little less than 10 hours a week. You can go for a hike, explore your backyard, visit a local park or just meditate in the woods. It doesn’t matter how you spend time in the outdoors as long as you are exploring the natural world around you.
Keep track of the number of hours you spend outdoors with my handy Nature Tracker which can be downloaded here. After you complete your 500 hours or more, let me know and I’ll put your name into a drawing for some prizes at the end of the year.
You can start the challenge at any time. Just be certain to spend 10 hours or more outdoors in nature each week for a year. Be certain to post photos of your outdoor adventures on the Facebook Group Nature Wanderer Challenge with the hashtag #NatureWandererChallenge.
Sign up for one of the Advanced Challenges for special benefits and extra entries into the end of the year drawing.
