Insect Discovery Station

Pre-registration is not required; simply show up and explore!

Equipment will be available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Calling all critter enthusiasts! Are you interested in all the little things that creep, crawl, hop and fly by?

Join us any time from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. and learn about insects, how to catch them, and find out just how amazing they are! One of our naturalists will be stationed at the Hohneke trailhead near the campground with nets and equipment to catch your little buggy friends. Don't want to touch them? No problem, check out a few from our insect collections, and get an up close view of them with a magnifier.

Pre-registration is not required; show up and explore! Equipment will be available on a first-come, first-served basis.

This all-ages event is free with park membership or $5/vehicle park entry. Children must be accompanied by an adult.
