About this event

Pinhook Bog hike: Easy, 0.9 miles in length, hike time of 1 hour.
The Bog Trail leads to a bog in a depression in the moraine created when a large piece of ice broke off the melting glacier. The bog features an incredible habitat with unique plants. This area is only open for Ranger-led tours, so please be on time for the 10:00 am tour.

Upland Trail hike: Moderate, 2.1 miles in length, hike time of 1 hour.
The Upland Trail highlights a rich beech and maple forest growing on top of a glacial moraine formed about 15,000 years ago. The Upland Hike is open to the public year-round without the need for a guided tour. This trail does not require Ranger access, so we will hike the Upland Trail after the Pinhook Bog hike.
