Finding something active to do in Fayette County is a lot easier than most people would think. Just this week alone you can explore wine, do some walking or explore some waterfalls to get some great exercise. Tomorrow, June 20 the Fayette County Healthy Lifestyles task force visits Christian Klay Winery for a guided walking tour of the winery at 6:30 PM. The annual walking tour and wine tasting is a popular stop in the series that you don't want to miss.
Can't make it to the walk on June 20, try catching the first annual Lavender Festival at the Winery on June 23. Just be sure to get up and dance to the Music of Mr. Harold Betters to burn off some of those calories!
Walking and tasting wine aren't the only ways to be active this week either. Try your hand at a 5K at the Uniontown Salvation Army 3rd Annual Hall of Fame 5K Run/Walk on June 21 in Downtown Uniontown.
If you would rather skip the competition and just enjoy some exercise outdoors, head to Ohiopyle on Saturday at 10 AM for Expedition Elevation. Meet your guide Barb Wallace at the park overlook and she will guide you on a 4.5 mile hike along the Laurel Highlands Hiking Trail. Along the way you will stop at a great overlook to enjoy the view and lunch. You can return just in time to visit the Farmer's Market at Ohiopyle that already has fresh local produce!!!
You could also join the State Park staff on Sunday at1:30 to explore one of my favorite trails along Jonathan Run. This hike beginning at the trail head on Holland Hill Road passes by small waterfalls and connects to the Great Allegheny Passage.
Don't limit yourself! There are lots of great things to do! These are just a few ideas of ways to stay healthy and active this week. Just remember to keep that bottle of water with you, it's hot out there!
