Are you looking for a fun, interesting, and educational activity to do with your school or community group? Well, a guided field trip to Calkins Nature Area may be just what you are looking for!
Field trips are a free service that Hardin County Conservation staff provide.
We can accommodate groups up to 50 people, but we can do larger groups with teacher/staff participation. There is also an area to eat your sack lunch or snacks for mid-day field trips.
Here are some of the activities during your visit:
Live Animal Exhibit
Prairie Hike
Forest Hike
Bird Watching at the Bird Observatory
Museum Visit
Nature Games
Plus Personalize Programming
Call Calkins Nature Center at 641-648-9878 or email Calkins staff for more information or to arrange a field trip.
The kids love to race the box turtles after learning the differences between reptiles and amphibians.
