Sixth Annual Trail of Tears Virtual Journey Kicks Off

Registration is open now for the virtual walk that begins on November 1

The Sixth Annual Trail of Tears Virtual Journey starts November 1, 2025 and concludes on January 31, 2026. This year’s virtual/online route will take participants from Nanih Waiya Mound in Mississippi to Nanih Waiya in Oklahoma through cities such as Memphis, Little Rock, and Fort Smith. Participants complete the journey via an app.

The app, called Be Well, uses any step-counter to track and log steps. Participants have a three-month span to complete the journey. The app will display the route, where your team is along the journey and where others’ team members are on their journey. Participants have until October 31, 2025 to sign up for the challenge.
