Hike Description
Several loops inside Fullersburg Woods, alongside the Night Heron, Riverside, & Oriole Trails. I will announce where to turn for the 2.25 mile option is. We will hike at a 2.5-3 mile per hour pace. We will depart at 10:15 with whoever has arrived. The route will consists of mainly crushed limestone with a few dirt trails and paved areas. There will be a few gentle inclines because of the moraines but no more than a 150ft elevation change. There should be plenty of wildlife out, look for herons snatching fish out of the water. I would classify this as a beginner hike.
Afterwards we will head inside the Mill & Museum.
