In early spring, Virginia's tiny delicate woodland wildflowers make their appearance! Come enjoy them during their brief and beautiful display in the forest along Gold Dust Trail. A park ranger will lead you in finding different species and highlight the special role they play in the forest ecosystem. You'll even get an up-close view with the park's handheld microscope and magnifying glasses! If you'd like to participate in identifying the flowers using an app, we recommend downloading the Seek app by iNaturalist.

The walk is about 1.5 miles long at a relaxed pace. The trail that is mostly flat with some moderate hills.
