This tradition of the First Day Hikes is for the whole family! As we complete a 1 hour hike, all 5 of your senses will be stimulated as we immerse ourselves in nature. Bring the kids to First Landing in weather and clothing to enjoy the Bald Cypress Trail on a guided sensory adventure. The only thing you will need on this hike is your senses of smell, touch, sight, and sound! Please note that safety and effectiveness of this hike are of the Rangers top priority. If attendance for this hike exceeds a limit that would interfere with these objectives than attendance may be capped.
