Discovery Hike

Location of Powhatan State Park in Virginia

Where

Powhatan State Park, 4616 Powhatan State Park Rd., Powhatan, VA 23139.
Overflow Parking (River Bend Campground)

When

Sept. 2, 2024. 10:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m.

It’s amazing how many of nature’s wonders are waiting to be discovered but are hidden in plain sight. Come explore the natural world with a park ranger and see what you can find. Perhaps we’ll come across some mysterious paw prints from a nocturnal visitor, hear the energetic call of a Red-tailed Hawk, or investigate a strangely beautiful mushroom. Children and adults of all ages are welcome. The walk will be at an easy pace and will cover about one to two miles depending on the abilities and ages of the group. Wear comfortable walking shoes and bring a water bottle.

Meet at the Overflow Parking Lot next to River Bend Campground. See you there!
