Ann Arbor, MI Hike—10/05: Nature Unplugged Hike-A-Thon

Join us on October 5th at the Bird Hills Nature Area for our Ann Arbor Community Hike! This 2 mile Loop wanders through hilly woods and beautiful forested area. The Bird Hills Nature Area is the largest natural area in the city at 146 acres. It boasts plenty of interesting and rare plant species to observe, including ravines covered with beech, sugar maple, flowering dogwood, oaks and hickory and various spring wildflowers.

See the Ann Arbor Parks and Nature Areas Map​ for location context.

Our trail hikes and urban adventures are a time to get together with old friends and make new ones. They're a time to unplug from our devices, breathe in the fresh air and connect with the world around us. At Nature Unplugged, we're committed to creating a community that values time outside, together—and that’s why we host our annual Hike-A-Thon and locally guided hikes.

Important Note: This event is a part of a month-long Hike-A-Thon! To participate in the Hike-A-Thon, please register here: https://charity.pledgeit.org/enu-hike-a-thon-2024

OCTOBER 1 - 31, 2024 | For the month of October, participants will be taking steps (literally and figuratively) to improve their own health, build community and advocate for less screen time and more green time. This hybrid event inspires people of all ages and abilities to get outdoors and raise funds to bring preventative mental health education and outdoor programming to communities in need. Participants can join local guided hikes (in select cities across the US and Canada), or log miles from anywhere in the world!
