Join our Stewardship team for a walk through the woods and an impressive wildflower display in the heart of Avon, Indiana.

Burnett Woods is one of the best nature preserves to enjoy spring wildflowers. Your guide will be stewardship specialist Phillip Weldy, whose keen eye for wildflowers has dressed up our social media feed for several years. We’ve recently added duckboard to the trails in hopes of enabling wet-weather nature walks.

All Ages

Free of Charge – RSVP Required

What to Expect and Bring:

• Easy, 1.5-mile wildflower walk over a flat, loop trail.
• Dress in long pants thick enough to stand up to thorns, brush, poison ivy, ticks, and mosquitos (unfortunately leggings aren’t very protective). Wear clothes you don’t mind getting dirty.
• Wear closed-toed shoes that can stand up to mud.
• Athletic shoes may be too slippery on the duckboards, if wet.
• Public restrooms are not available.
• In case of inclement weather, check email for updates.

Directions:

Address is 8264 E County Road 100 S Avon, IN 46123. Parking is available at Light and Life Methodist Church, 8264 E. County Road 100 South, which is next door to the preserve. Park behind the church in the back row and walk in a southeastern direction across the grass toward the road. The trailhead is near the road, behind the preserve sign.
