Join our educators on an outdoor guided hike to celebrate Earth Day! See the amazing flora and fauna that call Gulf State Park home and enjoy an incredible view of our beautiful Lake Shelby! Bring binoculars if you have them and water to stay hydrated! This hike will also include a short tour of the sustainable architecture at the Learning Campus.We will hike for approximately 2 hours, covering 1.5 miles of trails. These trails are paved and accessible for all ability types. Some wooden boardwalks will be present.
With over 28 miles of trails and 9 unique ecosystems to explore, there is always something exciting to see in Gulf State Park!
We will also be kicking off the 2025 edition of the 100 Alabama Miles Challenge, which encourages all Alabamians to get outside and walk, run, hike, bike, swim, paddle, ride, or roll with family and friends for 100 miles each year!
You can participate at home, in your neighborhood, at your favorite gym, but the program encourages you to get your miles in while visiting Alabama's beautiful parks, nature preserves, and waterways. With our Hugh S. Branyon Backcountry Trail being voted the #1 Best Recreational Trail in the country according to USAToday's "10 Best" Reader Awards for the 3rd consecutive year, we think you should get all of your miles here!
Register for the challenge at www.100alabamamiles.org. You can automatically track your miles using the Strava app and your mobile device. You can also share your photos on social media using #100ALMiles.
We'll start gathering at the Learning Campus at 8:30 am and will depart promptly at 9 am.
We'll have some swag to give away while supplies last!
