Conservation Tour
This exciting property boasts an ecologically diverse three-mile trail system for hiking, jogging or bike riding. The Lagoon Greenway is an example of a public/private cooperative developed by the Land Trust, working with Indian River County Commissioners, The Mosquito Control District and F.I.N.D. (Florida Inland Navigation District).
The tour will take participants through the newly created butterfly garden, into the hammock, through the wetlands, and onto the recently constructed boardwalk and dock for a view of the lagoon. The tour is approximately 2 hours and is an easy walk over 1.5 miles. Meet at the kiosk near the parking area. There is no need to RSVP. Please check our website for weather cancellations prior to the event.

Conservation Tour
Situated on the Atlantic Flyway, this 111-acre property is part of an important block of conservation lands acquired by the Land Trust along the Indian River Lagoon in 2011. It was one of the last unprotected wetlands on the barrier island and includes a mile of Lagoon shoreline. There is no need to register, tours begin at 9:00 and last aproximately 1 1/2 hours. Please check our website prior to the event for weather cancellations.
An easy but extensive walk on a 1.5 mile sandy trail, tour participants will learn the importance of the property as a part of the Flyway, a corridor for millions of migrating birds each year, and gain insight to the marvelous salt water ponds on the property. There are usually opportunities to view a variety of native bird species in their natural undeveloped wetland habitat. Note: Bee Gum Point is located at the far west end of Fred Tuerk Drive. If traveling North on A1A make a left turn onto Fred Tuerk Drive, Bee Gum is on the left just before a sharp curve in the road.
