wildlife trails

Fauna hiking paths

Wildlife trails are paths through natural areas designed for observing animals and plants in their habitats.

They range from short interpretive walks with educational signage to longer backcountry routes: The wildlife trail loops through wetlands where herons nest.

The term emphasizes nature observation over athletic hiking, though the activities overlap.
