OUTDOOR ADVENTURE
At the Nature Station, we believe the best teacher is nature itself. One of our goals is to encourage visitors to have a face-to-face, hands-on encounter with the outdoors. The Nature Station serves as a starting point for many types of outdoor experiences. Our staff leads canoe and hiking excursions themed to a variety of topics, from wildlife viewing and animal tracking to nature photography and wetlands exploration.
 
We also invite you to explore on your own. Rent one of our canoes and paddle the shores of Honker Lake, where you'll float among blue herons and giant Canada geese. Landlubbers can rent mountain bikes at Hillman Ferry Campground and
pedal in search of European fallow deer,
white-tails,
wild turkey and hawks.
Five hiking trails also embark from or near the Nature Station, ranging in length from 4.5 miles to a .2-mile wheelchair-accessible paved walk. Trails wind through a diversity of habitats: woodlands, wetlands, and meadows.
