About this Event
Renew your sense of discovery, and reap the benefits of immersing yourself in real Florida, on our guided hike of Bird Rookery Swamp (BRS). On this fairly intense ~12 mile hike, led by a CREW volunteer, you'll hike the entire loop at BRS, discover an essential part of the Corkscrew Regional Ecosystem Watershed (CREW)-one of the last wildlife corridors that stretches into the Everglades- and see firsthand local plants and animals of all shapes and sizes. Explore trails with a knowledgeable guide that you can continue to take advantage of long after your guided walk is over.
