Anthony Irving, Lyme Land Trust board member, Chairman of the 8mile River Wild and Scenic Committee, and well-known ecologist, will lead a talk and walk at the Czikowsky Hill Preserve.
Join us as we explore the many habitats that contribute to a healthy watershed. The Preserve is managed as a nature sanctuary with minimal human interference. The walk is moderately strenuous as there are no trails and we will make our way to the top for a view. What makes this parcel special is the range of habitat types, from river and moist lowlands with their deep sandy soils, to the dry, thin soils and large rock outcroppings on top, with an altitude change of nearly 400 feet.
The walk is family friendly for children 10 and older, and will take about 2 hours.
Rain date: Sunday, May 29 at 9:30 am
Directions: Rt. 156 north to left on Joshuatown Road. You may park along Joshuatown Road between Rte 156 and the bridge.
Registration is appreciated: info@lymelandtrust.org
