This is a vigorous 1 hour walking tour. The event proceeds rain or shine with no refunds so please wear weather appropriate shoes and rain gear if needed.

Parking is available along Branch Brook Park drive and we always encourage public transit via the Park Avenue Light Rail stop (which is a 4 minute walk from the starting location). This is a busy time of year in Branch Brook Park, so please leave early to allow time to park and heavy car traffic and unexpected road closures in the area.
