A small parking lot is located just north of the intersection of Mountain Road and Farmington Avenue in West Hartford.

Please wear sturdy, comfortable footwear. The walk will take place on natural terrain, which may be uneven, muddy, or damp in places.

We hope you will join us for an afternoon of learning, observation, and appreciation for this beautiful natural setting.
