Wild Walks

Wild Walks: Explore Tucker’s Parks With Us!

Join us for our family friendly Wild Walks, a free, walking program that gets you moving, exploring, and connecting with nature in Tucker’s beautiful parks! Walks are often hosted by an educated biologist and alternate between morning and evening times.
Whether you're seeking a peaceful morning stroll or a refreshing evening outing, Wild Walks is the perfect way to stay active, enjoy wildlife, and meet fellow nature lovers.

No registration required, just show up and enjoy the walk!
