Summer Wetland Walk
September 1 @ 8:00 am - 12:00 pm
FreeEvent Navigation
It’s hot, it’s humid, and some of our neighbors would have it no other way. This time of year the wetlands are buzzing with the sounds of birds, insects and amphibians! Come meet some of the plants and wildlife that make up this marsh community and learn about the Alachua County Forever Program’s conservation efforts on this ecologist-led family friendly hike. We will be walking on a berm elevated above the marsh to observe the wetland without getting our feet wet. The terrain is flat but there is very little shade, so bring comfortable walking shoes, sun protection, and drinking water. Length of hike will be variable according to participant needs.
When: Sunday, September 1st, 8am
Where: Barr Hammock Levy Loop Trailhead, 14920 SE 11th Dr, Micanopy, FL 32667
