We will take you past the Whirlpool to the site of the Great Gorge Route station and beyond. This hike is challenging (stairs and scrambling over rocks). Participants must be 8 years or older.

Meet at the Parking Lot (Near Playground) at Whirlpool State Park. Please arrive 10-15 minutes prior to the start of the program. Registration is required for all programs. Programs are free.

Dress for the weather and please wear proper hiking footwear. Bring a snack or lunch with you.
