Now that the heat and humidity of summer is winding down, take advantage of the great outdoors this fall. There’s so much to explore and enjoy at this time of year—here are some ideas to inspire your outdoor exercises.

  • Walking
    Take a stroll around your neighborhood or visit a local park and get stepping. Plus, in the fall, there are a ton of fun activities you can do on your walk—look for corn mazes, apple picking, or pumpkin patches around your local area and make your walk a fall extravaganza!
  • Hiking
    With breathtaking colors and crisp air, a fall hike will let you see the change of the seasons while getting some exercise. Grab some friends or family members and hit a local trail for a scenic hike. Don’t forget to bring a water bottle and a light jacket or sweatshirt.
  • Biking
    Cycling outdoors is a great way to get a full-body workout while relishing your day in the perfect outdoor weather. From tree-lined lakes to towering river bluffs, Minnesota offers numerous trails for public enjoyment.
  • Running
    Fall is the best time to run outdoors—it’s not too hot and not too cold. Running indoors on a treadmill can get old fast, especially when you see how beautiful it is outside. Lace up your sneakers and hit the pavement—and don’t forget to stretch!
  • Outdoor sports
    From football to volleyball to basketball, there are endless ways to have some fall fun with family and friends. Get a group together and enjoy some friendly competition. Win or lose, you’ll be sure to have a blast and a fun workout.

Whether you love to run, walk, bike, or stay indoors with a group fitness class at Dakotah! Sport and Fitness, there are plenty of ways to enjoy some physical activity this fall.
