About this Event
Join Se7en Wetlands for a 3.5 mile guided hike! This "Take a Hike" day route will take us around Wetland 3 - one of Se7en Wetlands largest wetlands. Learn about how water moves through Lakeland, eventually ending up at Se7en Wetlands to complete its journey as part of the City of Lakeland's Water Utility.
There is very little shade along the trail - please bring sun protection and water.
This hike is open to all ages - all participants must be able to hike over 3.5 miles unassisted on hard-packed, uneven, earthen trails.
Meeting Location
Meet at the Loyce E. Harpe Park Trail Head to Se7en Wetlands, located in the southeast corner of Polk County's Loyce E. Harpe Park. Follow the Se7en Wetlands trailhead signs to the gravel lot. Please note that it takes approximately 10 minutes to drive from the entrance of Loyce E. Harpe Park to the Se7en Wetlands Trail Head.
