Visiting this summer

Seasonal nature notes and what to look for now

  • 🌞Midsummer — early morning visits most comfortable; look for deer fawns in quieter clearings
  • 🐄Summer visits here combine well with a walk along nearby trails — the animals are most active in the morning.
  • ☕Café on site — makes this an easy full-day family visit without needing to pack food

Good to know
