Program Description

Event Details

Join certified arborist Jenny Willoughby and library staff for a hike in the City of Frederick Watershed where we'll see how ecology, history, and water resources all converge to make this a special backcountry gem.

Meet at the Sand Flats Parking area at the north end of the Watershed on the east side of Gambrill Park Road, just south of its split with Tower Road. Expect a 2-3 hour hike over uneven, but fairly easy terrain, about 3.5 miles. 

There are no facilities in the Watershed so come prepared for a backcountry experience.
