For a different birding experience, join our knowledgeable bird walk docents at a little-known birding hot spot. This is about a 2 mile walk on an uneven dirt and gravel trail that crosses through a deep wash. There is no shade, and it will be hot on sunny days. The walk will last about 3 hours. Please realistically assess your ability to do this walk. Bring water, hat, and binoculars. Meet at the Millville and Petroglyph Discovery Trail parking area. This trailhead is located 7.5 miles east of Sierra Vista on Charleston Road. This is not the parking area right by the river: look for the fire danger level sign on the north side of Charleston Road at the entrance to the parking lot, about 0.5 miles east of the river. Meet by the vault toilet. This location is searchable as "Millville and Petroglyph Discovery Trail" in Google Maps. There is no charge for the walks.
For more information call (520) 508-4445 or email fspr@sanpedroriver.org.
