This event is self-guided, but we encourage you to take photos and share them to highlight the natural beauty of Delphi’s historic trails.

Nature Walk - November 7
2026-11-07 14:30 - 15:30
Join your guide David McCain for a scenic and informative walk through the trails of Wabash & Canal Park!
This walk will explore one of our National Historic Register sites, the Delphi Lime Kilns. This site is one of the few places you can see original “pot kilns” of the Canal Era where valuable limestone was once processed into useful building materials.
All ages are invited to participate. There is some uneven terrain, but the walk is otherwise mostly flat and manageable over grassy and stone surfaces.
The group will depart from the Wabash & Erie Canal Park Interpretive Center at 2:30pm, and be sure to explore as many trails as you can throughout the day as part of Hike the Trails Day 2026!
