Explore the beautiful trails of McKaig Nature Center all year round with monthly guided hikes lead by a member of our Events Committee. While you hike, you'll get to know McKaig in a whole new way by learning park history, fun nature facts, and insider tips... All for FREE!*
Each guided day hike will last approximately 60 minutes and will be open to all ages, paces, and levels of experience. Dogs are welcome too as long as they remain leashed the entire time they're in the park.
Day hikes will start promptly at 3:05pm and will begin and end at the Croton Road entrance. Be sure to arrive early! There is plenty of parking in the Robert's Elementary School parking lot.
Please bring your own water bottle (reusable is best!) and comfortable, sturdy shoes or boots. Depending on the season, you may want to bring extra layers, sunscreen, and/or bug spray. If you're bringing a pup, please bring bags to clean up after them.
*Pre-registration and a signed waiver are required. Event is FREE but donations to the park are always welcome!
