Celebrating Mother's Day with Mother Nature

We’ll take a 3.0-mile amble through the green-turning-gold hills of Round Valley and enjoy some fresh air and camaraderie. Round Valley is a treasured preserve among the EBRPD parks and has a long and fascinating history.

Be sure to dress in layers and wear sturdy boots or shoes; bring plenty of water, sunscreen, and a snack. Heavy rain cancels.
