Join us for the exciting unveiling of our newly completed ground projects: the Accessible Meadow Birding Platform and Forest Discovery Trail educational signage! We will give you a tour of these exciting new developments that you can enjoy this fall and many more seasons to come. Please park in the lot behind Family Services, 1200 S. Broad St., Winston-Salem. The walk will depart from the Salem Creek Greenway path adjacent to the lot and next to Gateway Nature Preserve.

Gateway Nature Preserve is partnering with Winston-Salem Recreation & Parks to offer an inclusive and accessible nature walk! During this program, we’ll look at the preserve’s forest in fall and engage in nature-themed activities. All ages, abilities, and levels of experience welcome. Plan to travel 1 mile out and back along the paved Salem Creek Greenway. Park and meet at the paved lot of Family Services, located at 1200 S. Broad Street. Registration is required at or 336-727-2975.

Skip the crowds at the mall and come out for this post-Thanksgiving Gateway Nature Preserve annual tradition! This year, the bird walk will be led by a team of Forsyth Audubon field trip leaders. We’ll explore the paved and wooded trails of the preserve as we identify birds in their early winter habitat.

This event is free, but registration is required. Please park in the Washington Park parking lot, accessible from Bond St., and follow the signs across Salem Creek to Gateway Nature Preserve.
