Treasure Hunt: Hike at your own pace

  • Hiking one, or all six of our trails, you can search for hidden treasure. If you're a family looking to spend a fun day outside, or you want to compete with your friends to find all of the treasure, it's really up to you.  
  • Those who find all of the treasure will receive a prize.
  • To work around busy schedules and naptimes, you are free to participate in the Treasure Hunt at any point between 10:00 a.m. through 2:00 p.m. 
  • Absolutely no requirement to hike all of the trails. Hike at your leisure.
  • Note: Though this event is $10 per person, we've capped the price at $40 per family.
