Trek 'N' Talk is a guided, slow-paced nature walk designed for seniors to socialize while exploring the trails at Bass Lake Park. Led by a local guide, the group spends about an hour spotting local birds, identifying seasonal plants, and enjoying casual conversation along the flat paths. Participants should wear sturdy walking shoes and bring a water bottle. The park provides trekking poles and binoculars for anyone who wants extra stability or a closer look at the wildlife. While the event is geared toward older adults, the park itself features a great paved loop, a nature center, and clean restrooms near the main parking lot.
