Our Wildest Place Guided Hike

Spend part of your Saturday morning with a Naturalist who will lead you on a family-friendly nature hike in the Preserve.

Why is Brooker Creek Preserve “Our Wildest Place”? Nearly 9000 acres of undeveloped land in our crowded county is a real treasure. Come and enjoy the beauty on this one-mile hike. Registration is required.

This is a free hike, however space is limited. Please be courteous and do not register unless you plan to attend and cancel your reservation if you can no longer attend.
