SUMMARY:Golden Hour Hike to Elk Lick Falls
DESCRIPTION:End your day with a quiet and relaxing “golden hour” hike at Floracliff while the early evening sunset shines through the trees. This will feature Elk Lick Falls and one of Kentucky’s oldest trees. \nHike distances: 1.5 miles; rated moderate\, due to steep and uneven terrain; there may also be some slick spots near the creek \nBring: water \nOptional: hiking poles\, snack\, camera \nHike Leader: Floracliff naturalists \nPlease note: The Nature Center is open for restroom access only. \nCOVID-19 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND GUIDELINES UPDATE: As of Tuesday\, April 27th\, the state of Kentucky as well as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has updated guidelines for small outdoor gatherings. Kentucky no longer requires a mask be worn outdoors for events of fewer than 1000 people. The CDC states the risk of COVID-19 spread is low in outdoor settings\, but also continues to recommend masks in settings where physical distance cannot be maintained. \nIn response to the current guidance\, Floracliff will not require fully-vaccinated individuals to wear masks during outdoor programs as long as adequate physical distance (6-feet) can be maintained between others outside of one’s household/pod. Floracliff continues to recommend unvaccinated individuals wear a mask throughout all programs\, especially when adequate physical distance cannot be maintained between others outside of one’s household/pod. \nAll program participants and Floracliff representatives\, both fully-vaccinated and unvaccinated\, should have a mask available during programs in the case that adequate physical distance cannot be maintained. We are happy to provide one to you if necessary. \n*These guidelines are subject to change at any time according to current state and CDC guidance. \nRefund Policy: Refunds are permitted for cancellations made at least two weeks in advance of the event.
