Flat Rock offers one-hour guided nature walks for groups year-round. These walks are available to groups of children four years or older, youth groups, adult groups, and groups with special needs. Walks follow the trails and explore the plants and animals of the pond, forest, and field habitats as well as seasonal changes at the preserve and can be catered to the specific needs and interests of each group. For example, if a scout group wishes to have a program that will complete a badge requirement, arrangements can be made with the staff naturalist in advance.

All walks start and end at the Nature Center at 443 Van Nostrand Ave. Other starting locations can be arranged in advance.

Walks can be scheduled throughout the year, subject to the availability of the staff naturalists. To register for a group program please call the Flat Rock Brook office at 201 567-1265 ext. 203 or email carol@flatrockbrook.org.

• Lessons are $6 per person; includes two free chaperones

• Each additional chaperone is $6

• Minimum program fee $40

Group size is limited to 50 participants. Payment must be made at least one week prior to a scheduled walk.

If Flat Rock cancels a scheduled nature walk due to weather, we will attempt to reschedule your program or refund your money. If the group cancels the walk, the payment is considered a donation to the Nature Center.
