Join naturalist Nikko Gagnon and woodland wanderer Mary Verrilli for a leisurely meander through Ashuelot River Park on the Jonathan Daniels Trail, where we’ll watch for spring birds, look for animal tracks and signs, and explore the river’s edge. This is a 2-mile roundtrip hike with little to no elevation gain. While there are a few roots and small bridges, the trail is generally very accessible. Bring binoculars (or borrow a pair from us), and dress for the weather.

10 a.m. to noon at Ashuelot River Park in Keene. Meet at the parking lot for Jenna’s Market at 255 West Street in Keene. Space is limited, and registration is required. For general information about Harris Center field trips, see our Outings Information page. For more information about this particular outing, including questions about accessibility, contact Nikko.
