Sponsored by Maryland Native Plant Society

Leader: Carole Bergmann

Location: Hoyle's Mill Conservation Park

Description: Join us for a hike through one of the most diverse forests in Montgomery County. Hoyles Mill Conservation Park is underlain by a large sill of diabase bedrock, and because of the unique nutrient rich soils derived from the diabase bedrock, the plant community contains many less common species.

Notes:  We will walk on a previous gravel roadbed which is now a natural surface trail. Expected distance is 2 miles out and back. No bathrooms at the trailhead.

For additional information (not to register): Carole Bergmann ( 301-651-0646)

ONLINE REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED. Limited to 10 people, due to limited parking.

Directions will be included in registration confirmation.

Bring: water, snack, sunscreen, proper shoes

Cancellation Policy: Walk will proceed in drizzle, but will be canceled for heavy rain or thunderstorms

Please consider the safety, health, and well-being of all participants in our programs and stay home if the participant is ill.
