Haw River State Park offers a variety of learning opportunities for all ages. Typically led by park rangers, these interpretive programs allow the public to gain perspective into what makes North Carolina state parks naturally wonderful.
Most of the events are free, though some require pre-registration. All give park visitors deeper insight into the natural world. Call the park office for more information.

A short 0.4-mile hike is required so please bring a flashlight (preferably with a red light) and follow signs from the parking lot to reach the observation site past the connector trail.
