Step into one of Minnesota's last remaining Big Woods forests and experience a landscape that once covered much of the southern part of the state.
Together, we'll explore towering maple, basswood, oak, and elm trees while discovering how glaciers, climate, and time shaped this remarkable ecosystem. Along the trail, we'll slow our pace to notice seasonal changes, native plants, birds, and the intricate relationships that make this forest thrive.
This experience blends guided hiking with natural history, ecology, and moments of quiet observation. Rather than simply walking through the woods, we'll deepen our understanding of the landscape and our relationship with it.
