Hardwood Nature Hike

Join Kyle Bagnall, Park Naturalist, as we explore Mackinac Island State Park’s newest interpretive pathway, the Hardwood Nature Trail. Starting at the Avenue of Flags (behind Fort Mackinac), we’ll walk about ¾ mile to a woodland loop through Mackinac’s changing hardwood forest. Along the way, we’ll find wildflowers, such as trillium & trout lily, and watch for migrating songbirds & other wildlife. New interpretive panels, installed in late 2021, were generously funded by the Chippewa/Luce/Mackinac Conservation District. This is a free event – donations welcome!
