Event Description

River View Trail Summer Birding Hike at Gooseberry Falls State Park

Join Park Naturalist on the River View trail (approximately 1 mile one way from the visitor center) which offers beautiful views of birch and aspen bluffs around the Gooseberry River, Mouth of the Gooseberry River and Lake Superior where many birds hunt fish or eat aquatic vegetation. This trail walks the gentle grade of the river down to the river delta. The trail borders the cliffside through the dogwood understory often chirping with sparrows, vireos, and warblers.

This path is packed gravel and clay and can be muddy. If the route is too wet, we will take an alternate route.

Meet outside the visitor center East doors. Free parking in the wayside rest lot near the visitor center is available.
