With the official start of spring at hand, we’ll take a hike along the Potomac River where nature lovers can observe the tug-of-war between lingering winter and imminent spring—what our naturalist leader calls March Madness! She’ll lead you on a 3-4 mile hike along several trails in Riverbend Park which sits along the Potomac River near Great Falls, VA. Along the way, there will be plants and animals to catch our interest in this protected area’s rocky woods, sycamore bottomlands, and flowing River waters. The natural surface trails, which will include some uphill/downhill, may be muddy and/or slippery.
