Cleveland Metroparks Outdoor Education Programming
Guided hikes and outdoor recreation opportunities offer exploration and adventure
Park naturalists and recreation specialists lead a variety of outdoor programs across the Park District to offer guests a way to stay active and explore the Emerald Necklace.
Park naturalists offer a variety of hikes for all ages including birding, history, night hikes as well as family-friendly hikes. Outdoor recreation specialists will also offer programs where guests can learn a new outdoor recreation skill.
Virtual learning opportunities will continue to be offered on a limited basis.
Most naturalist led programs and hikes are free, but some may require advanced registration. Most Outdoor Recreation programs will require registration and a small equipment fee.
We strongly recommend that guests who are unvaccinated continue to wear facial coverings in Cleveland Metroparks' indoor locations and practice social distancing. Guests should not visit Cleveland Metroparks if they are exhibiting any symptoms of COVID-19.
