Description
Spring Field Trip!
Date: March 29, 2025
Location: Chestnut Ridge Heritage Preserve in Landrum, SC
It’s that time of year - spring wildflowers in South Carolina!
Chestnut Ridge is a favorite for many wildflower enthusiasts. Please join this hike led by Dan Whitten to enjoy trillium, bloodroot, chickweed, violets, Solomon’s seal and many others.
Directions:
We will meet at 9:30 at the Chestnut Ridge Heritage Preserve Parking lot in Landrum. The parking lot is on Oak Grove Church Rd., 0.9 miles from the intersection with SC 11.
What to Expect and What to Bring:
If the group is up for it, we’ll do a more strenuous 5 mile walk with about 1000 feet of elevation, but if not we’ll walk about 3 miles. Bring water, a lunch, weather-appropriate clothing and, if you use hiking poles, bring them along. You may want to enjoy a closer look at some flowers with your hand lens.
Space is limited! Registration opens February 1st.
