Guided Nature Walks: Wellspring on the Trails

Join a guided stroll through Conner Prairie's trails to explore the natural world that inspired the Wellspring exhibit. During this one-hour walk, you'll learn about local plants, animals, and habitats from a knowledgeable guide. The route covers less than a mile on mostly flat, paved paths with some crushed-gravel sections, all shaded or partly shaded. Benches are positioned along the way if anyone needs to rest. This program welcomes families of all ages and anyone curious about connecting with nature. The walk is free with general admission to Conner Prairie. Since it runs rain or shine, dress for the weather and bring sunscreen, hats, or water as needed. The route starts near the Museum Experience Center and is designed to be accessible, with restrooms available on-site. If you have specific access needs, the Nature Engagement Specialist at morton@connerprairie.org can discuss ways to support your family's participation. At the end, you can either return to the Museum Experience Center with the guide or continue exploring on your own.
