Old Growth Forest Hike
Saturday, March 8, 2025 09:00 AM - 12:00 PM
In April of 2022, the forest along Big Tree trail was inducted into the Old Growth Forest Network, demonstrating our commitment to protecting this area in perpetuity so that it will someday become a true old growth forest. Relatively undisturbed by human activity for 150 years, this area contains some of the Preserve's oldest and tallest trees. Join Mike for a 6-mile hike to Big Tree trail, and along the way explore some of the Preserve's most treasured landscapes and features, including the 13 Bridges trail, the Pocantico River, and the Triple-Arch Bridge. We'll emerge from this forested landscape and complete the hike with a view of Swan Lake. Leashed dogs are welcome. Be prepared to move at a steady pace; some hiking experience is recommended. Max: 20 people. Cost: FREE, registration required. Parking: $6 per vehicle. RockefellerStateParkPreserve.org/events.
