Join us for a hike at Ditch Pond Heritage Preserve on January 11th as part of our monthly hike series. Explore 296 acres of upland and wetland habitats, including the rare 25-acre Carolina Bay wetland. The 2–3-mile loop will take you through sandhills and wetlands, where we’ll observe unique plants and animals and learn about ongoing habitat restoration efforts by the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources.

This family-friendly event welcomes leashed dogs.

Parking is limited, so this hike is limited to the first 15 participants that register on our website. We ask that only one person register per car if you are riding together as a group.
