Most of McCormick’s Creek State Park is open even though the campground is closed. Trails 1, 3, 4, 8, and 9 offer opportunities to explore what makes the park special during winter. With the woods “sleeping,†you can spot features hard to see the rest of the year.
Trails 3 and 9 offer a clearer view of geological and historical features while the leaves are off the trees. Trails 1 and 8 offer opportunities to see how the woods change during winter, and if you visit for the upcoming naturalist-led hike on Trail 4 on Dec. 22, you’ll have a chance to see how the view from the fire tower changes in the winter months.
The nature center offers regular naturalist programming and an exhibit hall featuring the park’s history, geology, ecology, and more.
