About this Event
Each year, the Bidwell House Museum is excited to participate in the Housatonic Heritage Walk series that takes place throughout the Berkshires and northern Connecticut.
This year the Museum will be offering three guided walks, the second on September 20 with Richard Greene. On this guided “ramble” through the woods surrounding the Bidwell House Museum, Greene will lead visitors through a landscape rich with history, verdant forests and evidence of animals who make these woods home. He will share his deep knowledge of these woods and the local wildlife with participants and also answer questions along the way. This is your chance to take a hike and learn about the wonders of the Berkshire landscape!
Dr. Richard Greene has always loved being in the woods and is fascinated by the animals that live there. He studies track and sign and has used camera traps to further his interests. He is a long term Board Member and volunteer at the Bidwell House Museum. He is a retired physician living in Tyringham and wandering around all over the place.
Please dress for the weather, wear hiking boots & bring water and a snack. This hike will last 2-3 hours and will traverse approximately four miles. The walk will happen in light rain, but will not go if heavy showers or thunderstorms are forecast.
This walk is free and is being offered as part of the Housatonic Heritage Walk series. The walk is limited to 20 people and attendees are asked to pre-register on the Museum website,
Registration for this hike does not include a tour of the Bidwell House Museum interior and the Museum is closed in Sunday. If you would like to book a tour, you can contact the Museum at 413-528-6888 or [email protected].
