You can hike with a park ranger and learn about history on Cedar Hill Greenway this month.
“Grab your boots and jacket to join us on a hike through the Secret City,” a press release said. “Manhattan Project National Historical Park will be hosting a hike with a ranger along the Cedar Hill Greenway in Oak
Ridge.”
The hike will start at 10 a.m. Saturday, February 26. The 2.5-mile moderate hike will begin at Cedar Hill Park, the former location of Cedar Hill Elementary School.
“Park rangers will be discussing the early school system of Oak Ridge as well as the shopping centers and housing in the Clinton Engineer Works,” the press release said.
Visitors are encouraged to bring drinking water and wear appropriate footwear since parts of the trail often wash out, the press release said. Cedar Hill Park is located at the intersection of Outer Drive and Michigan Avenue in Oak Ridge. For more information, visit the National Park Service desk inside the Children’s Museum of Oak Ridge or call (865) 482-1942.
Visitors are encouraged to visit our website for more information on the park at https://www.nps.gov/mapr/oakridge.htm.
More information will be added as it becomes available.
