The staff and docents at Calaveras Big Trees have expanded their guided walk program.
In the past, guided walks have been only offered in the summer season, but with the help of enthusiastic docents, the walks are now available on Saturdays at 1 p.m. year-round. The North Grove at Big Trees provides different opportunities for learning and recreation during each season, with brilliant fall colors, the quiet beauty of winter snow and dogwood blossoms in the spring.
Interested visitors should meet their guide near the Warming Hut in the North Grove parking lot no later than 1 p.m. The walks last one and a half to two hours and depending on seasonal conditions, the guides may lead participants through the North Grove or possibly other nearby locations.
Visitors are reminded to be prepared for weather conditions; depending on those conditions, bring or use our snowshoes or your own cross country skis in the winter, a rain jacket in the fall or spring and waterproof boots and gloves. Snacks and water should also accompany walkers.
The park entrance is $8 per vehicle ($7 for seniors). Call ahead for more information at 795-2334 or 795-7980.
