Camping at Village Creek State Park and Hiking in The Big Thicket
Details
NTO invites you come join a weekend of camping and hiking at Village
State Park.
The park is at the southern edge of the Big Thicket and has an amazing diversity of both plants and wildlife not seen elsewhere in the U.S.
The plan is to do some day hiking on the trails in the Big Thicket including the Pitcher Plant Trail, Kirby Trail, and Sundew Trail. We will hike between 3.5 miles and 5 miles depending on trails picked. This is about a 20 - 30 minute drive from Village Creek State Park.
On Friday you are on your own for dinner. Saturday plan a good breakfast and a lunch on the go as there will not be a place close by to pick up something to eat. Saturday we will have a pot luck and campfire.
Have made reservations in the Creekside Loop, site #PO38. This is a primitive camping loop with water only, no electricity. We have room to share or you can make your own reservations. There are still plenty of sites available in Creekside Loop.
Gear you will need: in addition to camping gear you will need to have the gear for hiking. Include a way to carry lunch, snacks and plenty of water. Dress for the weather. Bring insect repellant.
You are responsible for your own well being as well as making your own reservations.
