Bloody Run County Park
Join naturalist & natural resource manager Kenny Slocum for a guided hike through one of Clayton County Conservation’s highest quality natural areas at Bloody Run County Park. The restored oak savannas, oak-hickory woodland, and goat prairies have been a major focus of the CCCB’s restoration efforts, showcased by the rugged 1.3 mile Well’s Hollow Trail.
Early summer sees this jewel at its most splendid, with excellent opportunities to view wildflowers in bloom, neotropical birds, abundant pollinators, and unique reptiles if the sun is shining.
Participants should come prepared for the primitive trail with steep sections, rough footing, and possible off-trail ventures to interesting points. Sturdy shoes, long pants, and water are recommended.
Meet at the loop at the far end of the campground, near site #20. Bloody Run County Park is located one mile west of Marquette, Iowa.
