Join us for a guided hike all about winter exploration and discovery! On Sunday, January 17th , at 1:00 pm Wilton Wildlife Preserve & Park will be hosting a Winter Discovery Nature Walk. It will take place at Camp Saratoga North off of Scout Road in Wilton. During this walk over gentle terrain participants will learn about how the plants and animals living within the surrounding environment have adapted to survive the harsh conditions of winter. Together, participants will also discuss the basics of winter tree identification. If there is snow, these programs will include searching for signs of recent animal activity, including looking for animal tracks in the snow. Program run time is approximately one hour. A second Winter Discovery Nature Walk is also scheduled for the following day, Monday the 18th starting at 1:00pm. If needed, snowshoes will be available for rental prior to the program at Parking Lot #1 on Scout Road. Snowshoe rentals are $5 per person, $3 for kids/students. Registration is required at least one business day in advance of the event. Face masks will be required to be worn throughout the duration of the program. Participants should park in Parking Lot #1 on Scout Road, town of Wilton.
