Auerfarm is proud to be a part of this exciting initiative, offering a unique and unforgettable experience for nature enthusiasts of all ages. The Blazing Goats Hike & Walk promises a two-mile adventure that will take you through the picturesque connector trail, leading you to the MDC and concluding at the Auerfarm Scenic Preserve/Auerfarm State Park.
Along the way, you’ll be treated to stunning views and have the opportunity to visit Auerfarm’s beloved goat herd. Imagine the delight of your little ones as they catch glimpses of these friendly and adorable creatures grazing in their natural habitat. It’s a moment that will undoubtedly create lasting memories and foster a deeper appreciation for the wonders of the natural world.
After the hike, you can unwind and replenish your energy with light refreshments, savoring the tranquil ambiance of the scenic preserve. The terrain is mostly level and easy, making it an accessible and enjoyable adventure for hikers of all skill levels.
