Birding Hike!

Chirp chirp! Join us on Saturday, April 11 for the birding hike at Poverty Point World Heritage Site. A 1.5 mile expert-led hike will take visitors through a portion of the earthworks to identify bird species that you can see and hear along the way! This event begins at the visitors center at 10 a.m. with an introductory talk from Roselie Overby, Master Naturalist. Visitors should bring smart phones for those who want to use the Merlin Bird ID app to help identify birds during the hike. https://merlin.allaboutbirds.org/

Poverty Point World Heritage Site offers visitors the unique opportunity to experience and learn about the earthworks and those individuals who raised them from the ground between the years of 1700 and 1100 BCE. The $6 admission fee provides access to the museum, film theatre, hiking trail, driving tour, and any interpretive events taking place at the site. Seniors have a discounted $4 admission fee, and children 6 and under are admitted free. Ranger-guided Tram tours are offered Wed-Sun for $4 per person, but no charge for those 6 and under.
