Visit Glen Helen to explore over 15 miles of eastern deciduous forest, view more than 20 native educational raptors, join us for public programs, and more!
Explore rustic trails, stone steps and wooden boardwalks past dense forests and slow moving streams. Be sure to visit the yellow spring, take a picture of the beaver dam, and marvel at the limestone cliffs found within.
The Raptor Center is home to over twenty native raptors and birds, housed in large outdoor enclosures along an ADA accessible walkway around the building. Visitors are invited to come check out the birds, and explore the indoor classroom.
Glen Helen offers an array of programs for all ages, many of them free for members. Hike, learn, create, and spark joy with other like-minded individuals. The Glen hosts programs both inside the buildings and on the trails so there is something to engage every visitor in any weather.
