Wildlings Camp is a great way to introduce your child to the wonders of the outdoors. Our furry friends the cottontail rabbit, whitetail deer, raccoon, fox, and more take center stage at this camp. Touch & feel animal furs, head out on a hike to spot animal tracks, and learn about some of the furry friends that make Hitchcock Nature Center their home.
Online pre-registration is required as space is limited.
