Hikes and tours
There’s no better way to see the value of conservation than by getting out onto the land. Each spring, our expert hike leaders and outdoor educators offer a series of nature outings open to members and the community.
Some of these events are on public lands, but many will take you on to private conservation properties that you may otherwise never have a chance to experience. Learn about birds, butterflies, lichens, and more. Hikes are FREE but require pre-registration to reserve a spot up to one month prior to the hike. These hikes fill up quickly, so make sure to sign up well in advance. See our calendar or eNews in early spring for a current schedule.

We are so grateful to our marvelous and talented volunteers and staff who lead hikes for us every year. These volunteers include some of the best birders in our region, world-class ecologists, and people who love to share their passion for this gorgeous place we call home.
