Take a hike with us the third Saturday of every month to see the Bluff throughout the seasons and to learn something new on each trail!
Every hike, you’ll learn about the plants and animals that call the Bluff home and maybe even encounter some of our local critters along the way. Each of our trails are easy to moderate so hikers of all experience levels can enjoy, and we’ll tailor each guided hike to our group’s needs.
Make sure to check the forecast and wear weather-appropriate clothes and shoes. Water is a must, and trail snacks are encouraged!
Traverse the trails with a community of nature lovers this year! Guided hikes are included in regular admission and Wildcat Bluff or DCC Membership. Check our social media for updates in case of severe weather conditions.
