About Woods of the Parkway & Their Uses: Ranger-Led Talks and Activities (Waterrock Knob Visitor Center - Milepost 451)
Join a ranger for a material exploration of our native forests along the Parkway, from root and leaf to woven chair and shingled roof. Try your hand at our wood identification game, walk the circumference of a redwood tree, and learn the secret to carving the perfect spoon!
From the National Park Service.
Good to know: The 20-minute “talk” portion of the program starts at 1:30 PM.
