The Local 'YOU-cation'
The Elements reBOOT is a week devoted to you: a week to get outside and experience unique woodland walks with like-minded friends. No expensive flights, jet lag or shock of reentry, reBOOT right here and let The Elements D.C. lead the way.
We’ve crafted a way for you to reBOOT without having to skip a beat, leave town or spend a mint. Each reBOOT is a week long and includes 20+ hiking adventures throughout DC, Maryland, and Northern Virginia. Outings are scheduled throughout each day of the week (see schedule below). You can come on any or all of the walks. Our pace is brisk, but flexible. You can also take advantage of the discounted Elements Add-Ons (see details below). The result? A stronger, healthier, more grounded YOU!
$125 - full reBOOT + Yoga/Hike RECESS + discounted Add Ons
$75 - 12 reBOOT walks + discounted Add Ons (yoga/Hike RECESS can be purchased separately)
