Nature Hop is back and open for event submissions! Nature Hop promotes getting people outside to enjoy the variety of green spaces found throughout Fayette County and to find new ways to experience these spaces.
The event is designed to:
- Raise awareness of nature in our urban environment
- Encourage Lexington residents and visitors to experience natural spaces in new ways
- Publicize natural areas in Lexington that can serve for passive recreation
Last year’s Nature Hop was strictly virtual and included a variety of unique events, ranging from geocaching, self-guided tours, and a scavenger hunt. With this year’s event allowing for more in-person programming, we are looking forward to an ever more robust schedule. However, we need your help to do it. Organizers are currently accepting event submissions on lexingtonky.gov/NatureHop. The deadline to submit an event is Friday, September 3.
The fourth annual Nature Hop will be held Sunday, Sept. 19, 2021. (The rain date is Sunday, September 26).
