Richard's Rambles: Pink Hill

This event is no longer on sale.

Thursday April 20

10:00 AM  –  12:00 PM

FOR ADULTS (18+) AND YOUTH AGES 15+

Pink Hill showcases the only surviving serpentine barren of 10 that once existed in Delaware County. Join us as we explore this unique landscape and look for endangered and threatened species that make a home in this harsh environment. Mid to late April is when we hope to see the pink serpentine phlox that this barren was named for.

There’s more to discover in Tyler’s 650 acres. Join Dr. Richard Brenner for a walk through the various eco-communities at Tyler. From seasonal wonders, living fossils, meadows, watery locations, geological treasures, conservation areas, and unexpected wildlife, Richard will expertly guide you to prime areas for an experience you will remember. Expertise from others will often be on hand for a more in-depth exploration. These rambles are for those who have a love for nature, exploring, and learning. While a description of each ramble is posted in advance, we reserve the right to make last-minute changes, including weather and trail conditions adjustments. Bring your reusable water bottle and dress for the weather, including sturdy shoes.  

Upon arrival, please check in first at the Visitor Center, where you’ll then meet your guide.
