National Trails Day

From 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., there will be a variety of interpretive tables and programming at the Woods Walk on topics such as how to plan a hike, Leave No Trace, essential items needed in a backpack and more. Guests are encouraged to bounce around from table to table as some of the programming will be happening concurrently. At least one guided hike will be offered toward the end of the event. More details to come.
