A Tour of Floracliff’s Old Oaks
May 20, 2022 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm
FreeHike Leader: Beverly James, Preserve Director
Hiking Level: Moderate to Difficult, due to steep, uneven terrain and potential creek crossings
Floracliff’s forested ravines are home to some of the oldest known trees in Kentucky. This hike will feature many of these 17th- and 18th-century chinquapin oaks. We will discuss the characteristics of old trees, the uniqueness of Floracliff’s old trees, and their significance to the region. We will also stop to appreciate spring wildflowers blooming on the forest floor.
We are thrilled to offer this special hike for free thanks to the generosity of sponsors David and Kathy Rees Johnson!
