Wahkeena Nature Preserve
"… to be used for nature study and as a preserve for birds and other wildlife."- Carmen Hambleton Warner
A few weeks left!
There are just a few weeks left before we shut down for the season. We will be open through the first weekend in November. We still have a few programs left, two nature walks, and a Halloween Program. Our Halloween program is great for families as well as “grown-up kids”. There is also a lot of great color out in the woods now and still more to come. I don’t think you can go wrong this time of year when communing with nature. See you soon!

Things that go BUMP! in the Woods

Join the Wahkeena staff as they go batty for Halloween! Take a walk through the woods and collect some mysterious objects along the way.
