Accessible Bird Tour

Sunday, July 21, 8am – 11am

Join a guided bird tour at Olompali State Historic Park! Beginning and experienced birders can expect to see and hear many species as we explore along the meeting point of several diverse habitats and the historic Victorian garden, with its summer-flowering pepper and palm trees. We’ll seek to identify recently fledged chicks exploring their environment, and will discuss how and why birds thrive in these ecosystems.

We’ll proceed at a leisurely pace on a wide, firmly packed, dirt and gravel road with no steps. We will travel about .5 miles on this out-and-back route, with a gentle incline at the far end. There is some shade, and a few benches along the way. Bring sunscreen, water, and binoculars if you have them. We will have several pairs of binoculars to loan.

Meet in the Olompali parking lot at 8am. Parking is $8 per vehicle, via cash, check, or the Yodel app. There is no fee if you borrow a free State Park pass from your local library. There is no charge for the tour.
