Self-Guided Trail: Amphibian Life

Take a peaceful walk along the 1.1-mile Redwing Trail at your own pace while discovering the amphibians that call Summit County home. This self-guided experience features ten informational stops positioned throughout the trail, each one exploring a different aspect of local frog and salamander life—from their life cycles to how they behave across seasons to the various species you might encounter. This activity works well for families of all ages and fitness levels, since you control the speed and can take breaks whenever you'd like. Simply follow along at the stops to learn about these fascinating creatures. If you have questions before heading out, the Nature Realm Visitors Center is happy to help—just give them a call at 330-865-8065 (they're open Wednesday through Saturday, 10 a.m.–5 p.m., and Sunday, 12–5 p.m.).
