1 Get Ready to visit Hawk Mountain!

2 What is a SANCTUARY? Unlike some parks, Hawk Mountain Sanctuary is a place where EVERYTHING is protected – plants, animals, sticks, rocks, and even the air is protected. You won’t find garbage cans since we practice PACK IN/PACK OUT. We ask that all visitors stay on the trails and keep their voices low so they don’t disturb others who are also enjoying the Sanctuary.
