Event CalendarJoin a Riveredge Educator on a wintery afternoon hike at Lime Kiln Park! This is a family-friendly hike where we look for patterns in the snow, listen to the winter ‘creak sounds’, and search for animal tracks. Depending on the weather and snow cover, this hike may include strapping on snowshoes or venturing out on your own feet. Either way, we will practice our hiking and nature identification skills while on the trails. Class size is limited and all supplies are provided. Bring your own snowshoes if you have them. No experience necessary.
Park and meet at Lime Kiln Park in Grafton (address below).
