Join Ranger Kevin for a roughly 2-mile hike along the Plant Research Trail and the south bank of the Gila River. We’ll explore the riparian habitat for interesting plants and animals while we discuss the importance of rivers like the Gila to the health and diversity of desert life. The trail is easy with very little elevation change. Please wear sturdy, closed-toe shoes and bring plenty of water. Hats and sunscreen are also highly recommended. We’ll meet at the Nature Center, and then drive over to the Plant Research Trail trailhead. Bathrooms are available at the Nature Center. NO pets, please.

Limit 20 participants. To register, please call the Estrella Nature Center at (602) 506-2930 ext. 6. If you find you cannot attend a program after you have registered, please call the Nature Center ASAP so we may contact those on the waiting list. Registration for this program will close on 3/27/23.
