The All Saint's Episcopal Church is located at 645 Coliseum Blvd., Montgomery, Alabama 36109. The entrance drive way from Coliseum Blvd. brings your from the back of the church around to the front side (which is not facing toward the street). There is a low but large sign at the entrance drive way that says: "All Saint's ENTER" to help your know where to turn in to get to the church parking lot.
The labyrinth is a classical design with 7 circuits made of crushed red granite and has red brick pavers as edges of the path to the center and back. It is in the grass lawn area between the far edge of the parking lot and the line of mature trees and landscaping shrubs that form the border of the church property. If looking across the parking lot from the main sanctuary entry doors, you would find the labyrinth located in line with the right side of the building, or slightly Northwest from the main entrance.
The labyrinth is on a slight slope but is easy to walk. The red brick pavers are flat with the crushed red granite rock filling the pathway. It was weed-free and in very good shape. The width of the pathway was wide enough to walk comfortably. Being on a slight slope did seem to cause some of the sandy soil above the labyrinth's outer-most edge, across the top of the path to have some sand deposited after rains. This didn't really effect the ability to walk the path but is something to consider if going there after a rainstorm. A simple shoveling of the loose sand off the brick edging and you'd be on a clear path again.
The pathway to the labyrinth's center is designed to complement the concept that walking a labyrinth allows you to meditate and release your tensions and worries on the way in. At the center, you can leave those frustrations there and can return on the same path back with a more relaxed attitude of hope and contentment.
