Trail Testimonials
"My 6 yo child is hesitant to go into the forest so having an event with stations, games, and candy really worked for him. He also loved having a map and needing to follow it."
"The hike was well organized and great for everyone especially the kiddies! Loved the Halloween decorations along the way. Truly a family event!"
"Beautiful Walk"
"It was great to get out and spend time in nature and have a group to enjoy it with, I wouldn’t have had the confidence to do it on my own."
