Have you always wanted learn the wildflowers found in East Tennessee, but never knew how to get started? If so, join ecologist Adam Dattilo for a relaxed 4.7 mile in and out hike to Laurel Falls where he’ll share stories about the biodiversity of the region as well as facts about how plants are more clever than meets the eye. You’ll learn lots of wildflower species and might come away with a whole new perspective of life on Earth! Though we’ll not be in a hurry, the hike is steep in places and participants must be able to climb and descend the 500 foot elevation change on this walk. The trail is well maintained, but expect uneven footing. There are no rest rooms on-site. Bring drinking water, food, and be sure to wear sturdy shoes.
