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.

What should you bring to Hawk Mountain? * Sturdy shoes/hiking boots/ NO flip flops * Dress for the weather, layers, & raingear * Backpacks for hands-free hiking * Sunscreen/hat * Bottled water for hydration * Packed lunch with bag for trash * Sense of wonder!
