Saturday, October 13, 10:00 am – 11:00 am – Wing Island Guided Walk

by

On Saturday, October 13 at 10 am, join Archaeologist Dan Zoto and The Cape Cod Museum of Natural History for a guided walk of Wing Island, the location of the Wing Island Archaeology Project. Learn the history of the island and its varied uses throughout the millennia. Autumn brings rich color to the marshes and meadows of Cape Cod and one of the great places to soak it all in is along the John Wing Trail in Brewster. Located behind the Cape Cod Museum of Natural History on Route 6A (869 Main Street), the public parking area for the trail is located at nearby Drummer Boy Park.

It’s an easy and beautiful walk – a little more than a mile round trip–but it packs in a lot of fun and scenery. You get to walk a plank path across the marsh, then head up onto the forested island (complete with a mini-Stonehenge-like solar calendar, and the next thing you know you’re on a beach looking at Cape Cod Bay.
