Bays Mountain Park

Visitors can make a short nature-focused outing or plan a longer walk, while planetarium programs add another way to explore science at the park.

The operator currently notes that the Nature Center’s lower level is closed, so check the latest access notices before arriving. Programs have separate tickets and schedules from park entry, and barge availability should be confirmed rather than assumed. Select a trail that matches your time and ability, carry what you need, and follow guidance around animal habitats and the reservoir.
