Hike at Charleston Falls Preserve
Public Welcome Family-Friendly Registration Required Free Event Nature Walk/Hike Free Public Parking Lots of Physical Activity
Have you ever wondered how old that tree is in your yard? Ohio Certified Volunteer Naturalist Kathie Bowers will lead us on a 1.5-2-mile nature walk at Charleston Falls Preserve, just north of Huber Heights and south of Tipp City, where we will hike through forests and learn how to estimate the age of living trees. We will also visit the prairie ecosystems to see the late summer/fall blooming native plants and, of course, we will visit the falls. (Hope for some rain in the days beforehand!) Trail Description: The trail is well prepared with a gravel surface. About 80% of the trail system is relatively flat, but we will also be hiking up and down a couple of hills.
