Fernbank is doing a free summer series of nature walks. They are held on Thursday evenings from 6:30 – 8:30 pm, on the following dates:

May 31
June 7
June 14
July 19
July 26

Children are recommended to be four years or older. Parents must accompany the child. You can find more information here.

If you just want to check out the walk on your own time, Fernbank Forest is open to the public for self- guided walks seven days a week.

If you’ve never checked out Fernbank, you are missing out on an Atlanta treasure. They have really cool exhibits, and the whole place is like a little oasis in the middle of the city.

During the summer, Forest hours are:
Monday – Friday 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
Saturday 10:00 – 5:00 p.m.
Sunday 2:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.
The Center (and the Forest) are closed on July 4.
