Sunday, April 6th, 2025, 6:00pm:  Salt River Bay National Historical & Ecological Preserve!

General info for all hikes and walks: Hikes and walks are $5 for members, and $10 for non-members (become a member). Unless otherwise noted, the pace for hikes is moderate, lasting 3-5 hours, covering 3-5 miles, the terrain is hilly, footing is sometimes uneven, and we follow trails and possibly paved or dirt roads. Walks are easier and shorter than hikes, and usually follow paved or dirt roads, no trails. The guide may periodically stop and talk along the way. Bring sturdy, comfortable walking or hiking shoes, water, snack, bug spray, rain poncho, and camera. Shorts or long pants are OK. For day hikes, bring a hat and sun block. For night hikes, bring a small flashlight. There are usually about 20 people. We depart about 30 minutes after the posted start time. For some hikes, we will meet at the indicated location, then drive a short distance to the hike location.

Specific info for this hike: This will be a FLASHLIGHT hike. Bring a main, and a spare. This moonlight hike will be Sunday, April 6th. Meet at the Kingshill Post Office parking lot by 6:00pm.

This hike is along the Salt River Bay National Historical & Ecological Preserve, on the eastern (Est St John) side of the bay. It is about 2.5 miles total and the terrain is easy to moderate through dry forest to coastal scrubland and beach ecosystems. We will discuss the natural, historical, and cultural resources of the site. Bring your flashlight, water, and a snack.

Olasee Davis, our ecologist, is our guide.
