Once again Latta Plantation Nature Preserve on Mountain Island Lake is beginning a new season of
hikes with a naturalist. Experience the
wonders of the forest as we hike two to four miles through the
fall colors. Learn about the forest,
discover different species and become submerged in the environment around you. Get some exercise while you enjoy the
tranquility!
The hikes are free and are geared to the 18 and older
crowd. In September, the hikes will be
on September 5 and 19. They start at
9 a.m. and end about 11 a.m. Meet at
the Nature Center at the entrance to Latta
Plantation Nature Preserve. (CLICK HERE for a map and directions.) Wear comfortable shoes and
clothing, bring water and enjoy the camaraderie of people with similar
interests.
In October the hikes switch to the second and fourth
Wednesday, the 10th and the 24th. November’s hikes will also be on the second
and fourth Wednesday of the month. Wednesday is a new day of the week for the hikes. If you participated last season, the hikes
were on Tuesday.
I look forward to seeing you on the trail!
