While Summit Metro Parks has some naturalist-guided hikes, including a mindfulness hike Saturday March 13 and a Sunset Prairie Hike Sunday March 14, they’re likely to get booked up quickly, so you’ll want to get their schedule ahead of time if you enjoy guided hikes (they’ve got many more all month).

But if you like to strike out on your own, you can take one of their self-guided hikes anytime. Starting Monday March 15, you can take a birding walk at Nimisila Reservoir Metro Park where there’ll be information about the avian life you can see there at this time of year. It’ll be available through March 21. It you can head to Cascade Valley Metro Park where, also starting Monday March 15, you can learn interesting nature facts while hiking the Oxbow Trail through March 22 For more information call 330-865-8065 or go to summitmetroparks.org/ProgramsAndEvents.
