There must be some green space somewhere to go to. While not the wilderness it certainly is a start. I am fortunate that I can find spaces of outdoors within an hour's drive. THe best though is getting to the big thick forests, mountains, and large bodies of water. If you can, grab the chance.
Yes can agree since like going hiking and feel better when I walk my dog after work, pretty much live in a small town and close to a small city with parks to walk in. Just have to get myself into feeling like hiking and overslept the last time I was supposed to meet a group to hike. Also enjoy urban hiking and it includes “hiking” in a park or even scenic downtown area with artsy area with outdoor murals or historic neighborhood so a good choice if hiking in high elevation is not an option or if a person is not physically up to it.
