As a seasoned Nature-Based Educator with over a decade of experience, I specialize in guiding child-led hikes at Lowry Nature Center. My approach fosters children's interactions with nature and encourages free exploration, while I attentively gauge their energy levels and needs. As an expert in facilitating pure nature exploration, I also offer engaging storytelling to motivate children during the hike.
Adults are welcome to either join us or drop off their children if they are comfortable. I take approximately 4 children that are being dropped off per hike, depending on their ages and comfort level. Please RSVP to

Children of all ages are welcome. This hike provides an excellent opportunity to connect with others, enjoy outdoor play, and experience the rejuvenating powers of nature. It is a perfect setting to build community and make new friends.
We will gather at the entrance to the building at 10:00 am and commence our hike, which is mostly on flat terrain, at 10:10 AM. The hike will last approximately 1 to 1.5 hours, depending on the children's engagement and energy levels. Please be aware that children often enjoy stopping at interesting spots along the way. As a result, the actual hiking time may be approximately 30 to 40 minutes (less than a mile).
Besides dressing appropriately for the weather (rain, snow or shine), I advise getting a healthy fulfilling breakfast beforehand, and bringing a light snack and water.
