School Field Trip Visits



For over forty years, thousands of school students have visited the Monument annually to participate in our educational programs.

We try to accommodate educational program requests for students on a reservation basis, at the park. We also provide information and materials to facilitate teacher-led self guided class visits.



Take advantage of this opportunity for your students to learn about America's nationally significant cultural and natural resources located in northeast Iowa. 



A detailed description of our program and resources is listed on the "Plan A Field Trip" page. If more information on reserving a ranger conducted program is nedded - contact the Monument at 563.873.3491, or by e-mail at www.nps.gov



A phone call is always welcome and your message will be forwarded to the responsible staff.
