Senses of Nature
Where
Bear Creek Lake State Park, 22 Bear Creek Lake Rd., Cumberland, VA 23040.
Lakeside Snack Bar
When
June 8, 2022. 11:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
People utilize plants to survive out of which can come special relationships. On this 45 minute walk we will use our senses to relate to and appreciate the textures and aromas of three forest species native to this part of Virginia - Sassafras, Sourwood, and Spicebush. The walk will cover less than a mile of moderate terrain.
Participants with special needs or concerns can email bcguide@dcr.virginia.gov, so we can enhance your visit to Bear Creek Lake State Park.
