Description
Join National Park Service Naturalist Jerry Hightower for a wonderful spring walk on the Lutra loop trail through an oak/hickory forest as we cross over a small ridge and stroll along the floodplain to the northern most boundary of the unit. This is an excellent area for viewing wildlife. We will meander back along the river with the scenic shoals and rock formations, which include Native American nutting stones. We might catch a glimpse of an Osprey or a Great Blue Heron. The trail will offer a diverse collection of spring wildflowers and ferns, so please join us.
This hike is leisurely, however this walk is not suitable for very young children.
Remember to dress for the weather and wear very comfortable hiking shoes. Dress in layers so that you can adjust to changes in the temperature and your activity level. You may wish to bring water, binoculars, hand lens, notebook, and camera.
