Heritage Trails Park District invites you to explore Kuffner Nature Preserve for a spring wildflower hike!
Enjoy a self-guided nature hike along the beautiful wooded trails of Dr. Elizabeth Yahl-Kuffner Nature Preserve, located at 14840 County Road 66A, St. Marys. This diverse 15.8 acre woodlot contains numerous species of Ohio’s native wildflowers, including the official State Wildflower of Ohio, the Large-flowered Trillium. Interpretive signage will be located along the trail to help you identify the wildflowers you see first-hand. Self-guided hikes can occur anytime from dawn to dusk, April 24th – May 7th . Bring friends & family, hike at your own pace and learn as you go along.
Or take a Guided Wildflower Hike with a Heritage Trails Park Commissioner. Guided hikes will be offered on April 25th at 6pm, and again on May 6th at 10am. All are invited to attend!
Spend some quality family time outdoors in your Auglaize County Parks!

The hiking paths at Kuffner Preserve are a flat, level terrain, suitable for all to use. Be sure to wear proper footwear, as the trails do get muddy in the spring!
We also ask that you please:
-Stay on the trail. Doing so protects this precious wildflower habitat!
-Take nothing, leave nothing. Please carry in & carry out all trash, and please do not pick the wildflowers.
-Share your photos and wildflower hike experience with us on Facebook @HeritageTrailsParkDistrict or email us at info@htparks.org.
Get outdoors & enjoy spring!
