               Come Along on a Guided Tour!

Guided tours are offered in Miller Woods during spring and fall, for community and educational groups.  We also enjoy having scout troops visit and can work with troop leaders on special badge requirements.  Contact any board member to arrange scout or larger group tours.

Our tour guides have extensive knowledge of the flora and fauna in the woods, and enjoy sharing their passion with others.  Many were educated by the late forest ecology professor, Dr. Burton Barnes, from the University of Michigan. 

Next tours:  spring wildflower walks are planned for late March, early April, due to changing weather conditions.  Check back for specifics!    Tours are free and last about 60 minutes.  Tours leave every 30 minutes.   Must be comfortable walking on uneven surfaces due to large tree roots on trails.  Dates may change due to weather  conditions.  Check back on day of tour by 1:00 p.m. for last-minute changes.

The entrance is on Powell Road, east of Ridge.  Parking is on the side of the road.

** No strollers, bikes or dogs are allowed in the woods.
