Walking Places

Whether you are participating in a walking meeting with a co-worker, joining one of our walking groups or just setting out on your own, Emory has several unique walking areas to enjoy:

Lullwater Preserve

Explore different walking routes within this 154-acre preserve with beautiful trees, green spaces and a lake. The preserve is also home to home to an English Tudor mansion where the university president lives. The Meet Me @ Lullwater Walking Group meets here weekly in the fall and spring.

The Tunnel

The tunnel between Emory University Hospital and the Emory Clinic is a great place to walk indoors if the weather is cold or rainy. The tunnel walls are decorated with Healthy Emory thematic murals which include wellness tips and information about outdoor activities throughout Georgia.
