Congaree Eclipse Hike - River Trail

Astonishing biodiversity exists in Congaree National Park, the largest intact expanse of old growth bottomland hardwood forest remaining in the southeastern United States.  Waters from the Congaree and Wateree Rivers sweep through the floodplain, carrying nutrients and sediments that nourish and rejuvenate this ecosystem and support the growth of national and state champion trees.

Congaree National Park

Join a volunteer park naturalist for a hike along the River Trail to the sandbar along the Congaree River to get a once in a lifetime view of the Great American Eclipse 2017. This hike will take participants through the largest remaining tract of old-growth bottomland hardwood forest remaining in the country as the sun slowly begins to dim. Hear owls and get the chance to see nocturnal creatures come out as day turns to night!
