During this guided hike activity, we’ll focus on the common tree species found in the Northeast region of the United States. We’ll learn about the three most common types of trees: deciduous, evergreen, and coniferous. You’ll discover the unique features and identifying characteristics of each tree, such as bark texture and leaf shape and its habitat. By the end of the hike, you’ll be able to confidently identify the different types of trees you encounter while exploring nature.
Learning to identify trees not only helps us understand the ecosystem we’re in, but it also allows us to appreciate the beauty and importance of the trees around us.
