What better way to enjoy the great outdoors than to go for a hike at the Bob Jones Nature Center and Preserve.
It’s a great place for nature lovers to unplug and take in the environment while getting in a good work out.
The park has three different trails, the Walnut Grove National Recreation Trail, the Bluebird Trail and the Grapevine Lake Trail which can be accessed from the Bluebird Trail.
Are you a first-time hiker? No worries! BJNCP offers fun programs, activities and classes for those who would like to learn more.
On November 14, BJNCP is offering a class for young hikers as part of the Bowmen Day Hike Series. This introductory course will cover eco-responsible hiking traditions such as “leave no trace,” trail etiquette, safety measures and other important outdoor skills.
If you prefer to hike solo or consider yourself an expert, the Bluebird Trail is great place to start. The trail features interpretive and interactive signage with information about birds and other local wildlife so you can have fun and learn something new while you’re getting in your steps. So, grab a bottle of water, strap up your boots and head out to BJNCP for a hike!
A downloadable trail map can be found on our website.
