Saturday
Guided Hikes
It has often been said that the only constant
in nature is change. Brooker Creek Preserve
provides many opportunities to observe the forces
of change on the land. Experienced volunteers
lead guided hikes for the general public that examine
the ecological footprints left behind by those
changes.
All ages are welcome. Children under the ages of 16 must be
accompanied by an adult and those younger than
6 may find this hike challenging. Admission
is free.
Check our Calendar for
the date and time of the next scheduled hike. Whether
you are interested in plants, mammals, birds, insects,
or history, our hikes have something for you!
Pre-registration is required.
