About this event

Hiking & History at the McKaig Nature Center

Join us on a historic journey! This 2-mile hike immerses you in American history that has roots in McKaig Nature Center. We'll explore the symbolism of the Tree of Liberty, delve into the story of the Pine Tree Riot, and see a 1731 Swedish Settlers Farm House. The hike concludes by tracing the Continental Army's march to Valley Forge. Allow 1.5 to 2 hours for this enriching historical adventure led by the Park Ranger.
