TrailBlazers Hiking Series

Join Oakland County Parks staff for a scenic hike while discovering information about the parks and trails during the TrailBlazers Hiking Series. The September topic will be “Wildflower Hike.” Explore the beauty of native wildflowers and their variety of colors. Learn about the different animals that rely on our native flowers and ways that you can help support the native flora at Orion Oaks County Park.

The TrailBlazer Hiking Series runs through October and is a free program featuring 1-mile informational hikes. Each monthly session is held at a different park and features a new topic. It is a great way to get in steps. Walkers should dress for the weather and bring a water bottle and bug spray.

Preregistration is required. Call 248-858-0916 or scan the QR code on the TrailBlazers Hiking Series flyer to register.
