Discover not only the beauty of these birds, but learn of their strength and stamina in the long journey to and from the tundra they call home. Meet us at the parking lot at Great Marsh trail in the Elizabeth Hartwell Refuge. It is past the entry to the park on Gunston Hall Road. The refuge is open to the public, if you would like to take the hike on your own as well. This trail is more accessible than the Woodmarsh trail. This is NOT in Mason Neck State Park. There are many opportunities to join us if one is full.
