Nature Walk, 9:30-10:30

Take a leisurely, guided nature walk to read the landscape and evaluate the four parts of the environment entirely from a paved trail!

Take a leisurely walk with experts from the Mill Creek Alliance.  Dr. Bennett Kottler will lead a guided nature walk and habitat assessment along the Mill Creek Greenway Trail in Camp Washington.  We’ll stop on the Yellow Bridge for the big picture and explore nature from a paved trail that is accessible to all mobility levels and youth.  At less than a ½ mile roundtrip, we'll easily be done in an hour.

Special activities in store for young people!

Nature Hike, 9:30-10:30

Take a hike along the banks of the Mill Creek to explore the proposed Mill Creek Greenway Trail connection.

Beth Himburg (MCA Staff), Chris Carr (MCA Board), and Daniella Beltran (Yard & Co) will facilitate conversations around visioning for trails along the Mill Creek. This casual hiking activity will primarily be on rugged/rough trails, and will be about 0.9 miles roundtrip.

Guests can hear about exciting resident-led ideas for placemaking, forest activations, and how access to trails can benefit their communities!
