This hike will be slow and
steady to let the kids explore and enjoy an off-trail hike at their own
pace. We will walk roughly a mile and
see the Hudson from another view point and perhaps throw some sticks in! This hike is NOT stroller friendly so if you
have a younger sibling who wants to join, plan to carry them if they get
tired. Bring water and snacks are more
than welcome. This hike is $1 per
kids. Please register in advance by
calling 518-793-0511. https://parks.ny.gov/100/challenge/.

Moreau Lake State Park
Wiggly Wanderers is a casual and fun program that is
offered to walking toddlers, carriable babies and their caregivers. This will
be a beginner's hike/wander series for toddlers who are ready to move and
caregivers who are willing and able to baby wear and/or carry their toddler if
their legs get too tired. We will not plan too much distance walking and we
will rely on teachable moments to carry us through these experiences. Strollers
will not work for these programs. While you do not need to attend each week, we
will continue to build our toddlers hiking skills as well as their caregivers'
confidence taking the children into the woods to explore. This event does not
have sign ups, please come if you can. We meet at the nature center parking lot. $1 per child. For any
questions call 518-793-0511.
