Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for this nature walk on Ward Creek Trail?

A: There's no strict age limit for the hike, but I’d say it’s best suited for folks ages 12 and up. Younger kids might struggle a bit with the terrain, but if they’re adventurous, they’re welcome! Just be sure they have comfortable shoes and can handle a few hours outdoors.

Q: What should I wear for the hike, especially if it rains?

A: Layering is key! Definitely wear sturdy hiking shoes and breathable clothing. If rain’s in the forecast, a waterproof jacket or the provided poncho is a must. The trail can be muddy, so don’t wear your best shoes!

Q: What if I need to reschedule my hike?

A: If you need to reschedule, it's usually pretty flexible. Just contact Dawn as soon as you can, and she’ll work with you to set a new date that fits. It’s best to give at least 48 hours notice if possible.
