Join us as we search for fall colors, late bloomers and other interesting plants on this guided walk.

Spring isn't the only time to find wildflowers in Central Texas...there is a second, shorter blooming season for many plants in the fall. The leaves of flameleaf sumac, western soapberry, little bluestem, and a few other plants have vivid fall colors that liven up the landscape, too. Come out and take a look! This is a moderate intensity hike; participants must be able to walk over rocky, uneven ground.

This hike is open to ages 8 and up. Minors must be accompanied by their parent or legal guardian. No pets please.

Reservations required! Reserve your spot at the Friends of Government Canyon website. Registration opens on Saturday two weeks prior to the event and closes at noon the Thursday before the event. The hike is limited to 12 participants.
