Holy cow!, 8-12 inches predicted to fall Saturday into Sunday morning! This will be enough for snowshoeing on Sunday and will return the forest for a very brief period to absolute scenic splendor! This is perhaps the last chance to snowshoe and see our beautiful back country area graced with gorgeous snow. $40 per person guide, equipment and hot coco, two hour easy adventure!
We are always offering fun guided winter hikes with hot coco until March 21st. Then we move into Spring Birding and Wildflower Tours! Our interpretive guided hikes allow plenty of time for picture taking and some casual learning about the ecology, plants, animals and local history. Nature walks such as tour at Swallow Falls are not about how fast and far can we go. They are more about fun learning, sort of tricky off trail hiking into wild places and really soaking in nature.
Swallow Falls Nature Tours go into seldom seen back country areas and see the Maryland’s highest waterfalls – Muddy Creek. We mostly avoid the heavily traveled park trails. This back country hiking does require some average balance and care if you have a bum knee.
We can also take you on adventures to other areas like the scenic and easy River Walk or unique Cranesville Swamp (level trail and boardwalk into a northern boreal bog). Spring wild flower and bird walks
Just give us a call to discuss you personal and group needs. Most regularly scheduled tours are Saturday and Sunday from 10am to Noon.
