Explore the beauty of our trails with a guide at SHADOW Lake Nature Preserve and join us in a search for mushrooms of all shapes, sizes, and colors! We will attempt to find and identify as many mushroom species as we can and discuss the role fungus plays in the ecosystem here at SHADOW.
Guided Nature Walks are outdoor explorations that take place rain or shine, designed for people of all ages. Come with weather-appropriate clothes and shoes for moderate levels of walking – inclines or uneven ground may be encountered on this walk.
Guided Nature Walk on November 19, 2021, is now at full capacity.
Happy Independence Day! We hope your celebrations are joyous and nature filled! SHADOW Lake Nature Preserve's trails, the Richter Education Center, and office will be closed in observance of the holiday. We will reopen on Friday.
