Naturalists Then and Now

Hike the trails in Bastrop State Park as a Texas Master Naturalist leads you back in time for a spell.

During this hike, we look at the historic contributions of Naturalist from the 18th and 19th centuries (and even earlier) and contrast their skills, tools, and methods with Naturalist of the 21st century. Could you be a naturalist? Find out as we explore the trails!

Meet at the playground parking lot.

Guided hike should last around an hour.

Please remember to:

Wear close-toed shoes
Bring a water bottle
