County naturalist to lead trail talk at Altamaha Town Heritage Preserve

Beaufort County announced a two-hour trail talk at Altamaha Town Heritage Preserve from 10:00 a.m. to noon, led by Beaufort County naturalist Destiny Rains. The walk will focus on the different environments in Beaufort County and the wildlife that inhabits them, Chloe G said.

The bulletin described the preserve as a 100-acre oak-hickory forest along the Okatie and Colleton Rivers that was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994 and co-purchased by the county and the state in 2004 to preserve archaeological resources, including remnants of a Yemassee village and a colonial-era cemetery. Dogs on leashes are welcome.

The county directed listeners to its press releases page for more information and to its YouTube channel for related videos. The announcement does not provide registration requirements or a contact phone number.
