Nature Walk at the Gardiner Library

Friday, February 14, 2025 09:00 AM - 10:30 AM

Join Nick Martin, Park Educator, for a nature walk starting at the Gardiner Library. During this program, we will take an approximately one mile walk on the Wallkill Valley Rail Trail and wander through Majestic Park, which can be windy, muddy and wet. On this slow-paced walk, we will be looking at whatever natural curiosities intrigue the group, from birds to trees. February 14th marks the beginning of the Great Backyard Bird Count, so we'll pay special attention to birds along this walk. Participants are encouraged to dress warmly in layers, wear warm boots or shoes and bring binoculars. In case of a poor weather cancellation, this program will be offered instead on February 21st. No registration is required. The total number of participants for this program is limited to fifteen individuals. Meet at the Gardiner Library lower parking area, near the Wallkill Valley Rail Trail and electric charging station. For more information about the program, call the Lake Minnewaska Visitor Center at 845-255-0752 or email Nicholas.Martin@parks.ny.gov with questions.
Registration: Not required
