Guided Hikes this Winter and Spring with CEO Dr. Eric Kaldahl

Free to All Amerind Members

First Come, First Served!

This winter and spring, take a Guided Hike with Amerind’s CEO Dr. Eric Kaldahl. Hikes are FREE to all Amerind Members.

Guides hikes for non-members are $22 per adult; $20 seniors (62+) and youth (10-17). This fee includes the guided hike and admission to the Amerind Museum & Art Gallery on the day of your hike.

Most Cost Effective: If you love the outdoors and amazing geologic formations, a 1-year $50 Nature Club membership gives two adults and any children or grandchildren under 18 access to the hiking trails at no extra cost during our open hours. This membership will also give you access to guided hikes like these at no extra cost. Nature Club Members also receive four guest passes which you can use to visit our museum or give away to friends and family. Nature Club Members also get 10% off items in our Museum Store.

Guided hikes are limited to 20 participants on a first come, first served basis. You can sign up by calling the Amerind Museum Store at (520) 586-3666.

Each program will involve 1-2 miles of hiking and last 2 hours. Participants should dress appropriately for the weather and hiking. Don’t forget your water and sun protection (even in winter months). As with all Amerind’s outdoor activities, participants will need to complete a recreational liability waiver just before the hike. All the Texas Canyon Nature Preserve hiking rules apply.
