Volksmarch at Indian Creek

Join us for a fun, family-friendly outdoor event celebrating forest health, community, and the joy of being in nature. A Volksmarch—German for “people’s walk”—is a recreational and educational walk designed for all ages and abilities. Participants can explore as much or as little of the event as they like, with routes ranging from 0.1 miles to over 3 miles.

Event Highlights:

  • Educational learning centers focused on forest health, fire mitigation, and nature
  • Passport program to track your progress at each stop
  • Bracelet-making activity using semi-precious beads collected along the route
  • Door prizes for participants who complete their passports
  • Food concessions available for a suggested donation, including brats, hot dogs with toppings, chips, and homemade lemonade
  • Open to all ages; dogs on leash are welcome
