Birding by the Canal

Join a naturalist from Summit Metro Parks and Open Trail Collective for a morning of bird spotting and autumn scenery along the accessible Towpath Trail. This is a wonderful way to experience the season's natural beauty while learning about the feathered visitors passing through the area. Binoculars are provided on a first-come, first-served basis, so families without their own equipment can still participate fully. This outing welcomes people of all ages and abilities, making it a great choice whether you're new to birding or already a seasoned enthusiast. The accessible trail means families with strollers, older adults, or anyone with mobility considerations can comfortably join in. If you have questions before the event, the Nature Realm Visitors Center is available by phone and can help with any details you need.
