Hike and Reconnect to Nature
The public is always welcome!
​

 We have something at Lacawac for everyone...from day camps, school field trips, artists' residencies, educational programs, hiking trails and more!  One of the best ways to learn about Lacawac Sanctuary is through first-hand experience.  Only at Lacawac Sanctuary can you take a walk, hike with your dog, or enjoy a free nature-based educational program. Whether you want to study wildlife on our beautiful property or take a backpack and head off on an excursion, Lacawac offers a single starting point with a lot of great endings — and smiles all around! 

​Should you decide to visit, we suggest you make your first stop at the Coulter Visitor Center (hours vary based on season) and the kiosk near the visitor parking area. The kiosk has a map of Lacawac, including marked trails, and provides a short history of the site.
