What is the MCMH Wellness Walkway?
The Wellness Walkway consists of two different walking paths inside the hospital. If you need to get up and move after sitting with a loved one or want to use the path when the weather is bad, the Wellness Walkway is here for YOU!
Where Will I Walk?
The Upper Level Loop is .35 miles. On this path, you will remain on one level of the hospital. Complete three loops and you have walked just over a mile! The Upper and Lower Level Loop together is a .45 mile round-trip walk that utilizes the two stairwells at MCMH to give your legs an extra workout. Complete this loop twice and you have walked just under a mile! Follow the MCMH Wellness Walkway Apples positioned on the walls along the walking path. Follow the Apples and they will loop you back to your starting point.
