Latino Conservation Week Grizzly Creek Family Hike and Picnic
Join our Latino Conservation Week celebration. Pack your backpack and join Defiende Nuestra Tierra a Wilderness Workshop program on a family-friendly hike and picnic up the Grizzly Creek Trail, near Glenwood Springs. This gentle hike is appropriate for families and kids ages 7 and up. While the trail continues for several miles, we’ll go for just 3 or 4 total along the mostly flat, first part of the trail. The trail parallels the creek through a beautiful canyon near the Colorado River on the I-70 corridor. This hike will provide ample opportunity for bird watching along the creek, picnicking and learning about the extensive public lands in our area, and how you can enjoy them and care for them. This hike will be led by English and Spanish speaking guides.
