Join the Education Team for a Monarch Hike to learn what makes this butterfly so special and how we can protect them. Try to see them in caterpillars, chrysalis, and butterfly forms before they migrate to Mexico for the winter.

This program is free! All ages are welcome. Children under 16 must be accompanied by an adult.

We will meet at Hendrix Creek Patio by the picnic tables with colorful umbrellas beyond the Penn Ave parking lot. See map below. Please wear comfortable shoes for gravel trails, and bring water!

Hikes will be roughly 2-3 miles, on paved and gravel trails. Please reach out if you have questions about accessibility or hike intensity.
