Inwood Hill Park: City Nature Challenge Spring Ephemerals Walk

For the City Nature Challenge, join NYC Parks staff on a hike around Inwood Hill Park to explore the diversity of spring wildflowers. Volunteers will learn how to identify these plants and learn how to make iNaturalist observations of any other signs of nature you find along the way. Please bring water and a snack as well as your smartphone or camera! We will stay on trails and the hike will not be strenuous, but we will be walking for about an hour and a half, so please dress appropriately. If you do not know how to use iNaturalist, arrive 15 minutes early and we will show you how!

Location:  Payson Playground, 285-287 Dyckman St
