Starr's Cave Park and Preserve, Des Moines County
Thursday, November 2, 2023
Join us as we embrace the vibrant colors and crisp air this fall season with our Hike A Park Series! Running from September to November on select Thursdays, from 3:00 PM to approximately 4:00 PM, Des Moines County Conservation has partnered with Lee County Conservation, Van Buren County Conservation, and the City of Burlington to explore your local parks this fall. Mark your calendars for November 2nd when we convene at the outdoor classroom in Crapo Park. We're in for a treat as the City Forester and the Parks Superintendent will be accompanying us on this hike to lead tree identification and share fascinating insights into the park's history. Led by naturalists, these guided hikes will take you on a journey of discovery, exploring trails ranging from 1 to 4 miles in length. Whether you're a seasoned hiker or a beginner, this series caters to everyone's preferences and fitness levels. Feel free to leave at any time; no registration or fee is required to join! Nature's surprises await you at every turn, so come prepared! Dress appropriately for the weather—bring comfortable walking shoes, layers for cooler days, sun protection, and a water bottle. With our naturalists by your side, you'll learn fascinating facts about the flora and fauna we encounter along the way.
