Explore Culture, Community and Wellness with Urban Paths

Staying active is more than exercise; it’s also an opportunity to connect with your community, discover local history, and experience the culture that makes neighborhoods unique. Through its partnership with Urban Paths, AARP is helping adults explore Houston on foot while promoting healthy living and social connections.

Urban Paths combines guided walking experiences with opportunities to engage with local art and culture. These walks encourage participants to stay active, meet new people, and gain a deeper appreciation for the stories and creative spaces that shape the community. “It’s about the stories of community...and people actually learning those stories because they're out [walking.]” says Urban Paths founder and walking wellness coach Laura Conely.

Whether you're a longtime resident or looking to see familiar neighborhoods from a new perspective, these events offer a fun and engaging way to get moving while exploring Houston. Join AARP and Urban Paths for a series of guided cultural walks throughout the fall and winter, featuring Hispanic arts and cultural experiences.
