The Nature Rx App is a wayfinding tool located in the Michigan App to direct you to spots of nature. These spots are both inside and outside, well-known and hidden, and provide you opportunities for adventure and wellness. Nature Rx will help you to find quiet places of relaxation at U-M & Ann Arbor, spend time outdoors in nature, find green time and not screen time, and of course, think green and go blue!

This toolkit is designed for campus leaders, including instructors, staff, and student leaders, who are working in spaces where they are supporting student well-being. Tools can also be used by individuals in their own time and space.
