Mentor Marsh Guided Nature Hike: Fall Hike on the Zimmerman Trail

Join us for a hike along the Zimmerman Trail on the first Sunday of the month.

For almost 4 miles there and back, we’ll meander along the east side of the marsh along the north rim, enjoying fresh fall air, colorful foliage, and migrating waterfowl with beautiful wetland views. Learn the latest on the marsh restoration and see it firsthand along the way.

We'll be following the blue blazes—our 2-mile section of the Zimmerman Trail is part of the larger Buckeye Trail system!
