Explore North Park - B

Lifelong Learning | Registration opens 5/1/2025 9:00 AM EDT

Join the instructor to explore different areas of North Park each week.  We will check out the Fountain of Youth, Latodami Nature Reserve, Irwin Run Conservation area, and the Rachel Carson Trail. Along the way we will talk about the different trees, plants, mushrooms and birdlife at the park.  A 2-3 mile leisurely hike begins at a different location each week. Hikers need to wear trail shoes or light hiking boots. Prepare for all weather conditions. 

 

Those who participated in the North Park Hiking course in the Spring 2025 term must wait until May 19 to register. Members may only take one section of the Explore North Park course.
