Happy National Take a Hike Day! On November 17th, everyone is encouraged to get outside and go for a hike. Hiking is a great way to get exercise, connect with people, and, most importantly, connect with the wild places around you. Did you know that America has over 60,000 miles of National Scenic and Historic trails? And that over half of residents in the City of Riverside live less than a 10-minute walk from a park or green space? So, even if it’s for a short walk in a park, get outside and hike this weekend! And while you’re at it, why not enjoy a guided nature walk with the Museum of Riverside’s Curator of Natural History Ian Wright, as he points out plants and identifies birds around Doty Trust Park! Join us at 9 a.m. on November 17th for this free and family-friendly event! #ILoveRiverside #MuseumofRiverside #NationalTakeAHikeDay #Hiking #FREEevent #100eventsfor100years #MuseumofRiversideturns100 #NaturalHistory #familyfriendly
