Waukesha/Milwaukee County Chapter: Tyke Hike BioBlitz

October 16 @ 10:00 am - 10:30 am

A young child poses in front of trees changing to beautiful golden autumn colors.

Activity:

Have you ever wondered how many species exist in our environment? From the shores of Lake Michigan to the forests of the Northwoods or the soil in your backyard, Wisconsin is teeming with life – and the Wisconsin Science Festival is launching a statewide BioBlitz project to learn more! Meet Ms. Andrea in the lobby for a 30-minute hike and BioBlitz, where you observe and record different species.

The more you discover, the more fascinating your hike becomes! Learn, experience and enjoy Wisconsin’s own Ice Age National Scenic Trail and the wildly popular October Mammoth Hike Challenge!

Details:

The trail is stroller accessible but does go over some gravel. We recommend that you download the iNaturalist app ahead of the hike if you would like to record your observations. No registration is necessary to join the hike. This activity is part of the Wisconsin Science Festival and Let’s Hike, Delafield!

Weather dependent; watch the Delafield Public Library’s Facebook page for updates regarding weather cancellation.

Location:

This activity will meet at the Delafield Public Library. Library programs, events, and activities are free and open to the public.

Trail Magic:
