Summer Bumble ~ Join Naturalist Diane Schwartz for a free fun family friendly stroll on easy paths at Cherokee Marsh.  Enjoy summer in full bloom, cool woodlands, buzzing bees, chirping crickets, wetland frogs, dancing dragonflies and beautiful birds.  

Cherokee Marsh is Madison’s largest conservation park with three units - North, South, and Mendota. Each month, year-round we explore the north unit's beautiful trails through the woodlands, wetlands, and restored prairies along the Yahara ‘Catfish’ River. Co-sponsored by Madison Parks, Friends of Cherokee Marsh, and Sierra Club.  Follow North Sherman Ave. to the parking lot at the end of the gravel entrance road. Free, family-friendly guided nature walks at Cherokee Marsh Conservation Park – North are held on the 1st Sunday of each month, year-round 1:30-3pm. Free, welcoming, healthy, fairly accessible, family and kid friendly, educational, no registration required, no pets.  Children under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.
