A Walk in the Garden

Explore nature’s garden of native plants, ferns, and fungi that start growing in response to winter rain while hiking the Lost Trail from one end to the other. Despite the trail’s name, Docent Naturalists Susan Bernhard, Ann Reisenauer, Noa Doitel, and Maureen Draper promise you won’t get lost on this leisurely-paced jaunt: The trail is wide, well graded, relatively flat, and wends through Douglas fir forest habitat where you’ll listen for birds and other forest dwellers. Bring a snack for a break. (Note: This hike involves a short car shuttle that will be organized from the parking area.)
