Join Our Biggest Walk for Wildlife Ever!
Walk for Wildlife is a celebration of our vital natural resources and an inspiring opportunity to joyfully embrace the natural world. Throughout October, this highly anticipated event brings individuals and teams together in the spirit of friendly (and fierce) competition for the most wildlife habitats visited, most species identified and most miles walked along the way. Keep track of how your team is doing on the leaderboard.
Benefits of participating:
- A deeper knowledge and love of nature.
- Quality bonding time with friends and family.
- More exercise, less screen time.
- Chances for great prizes, including Virginia State Park gift certificates, vouchers for our Native Plant Sale, gift certificates for our online store and more. Visit the FAQ page for more details.
- Automatic entry into TWO exciting raffles for even more great prizes. (See the Registration and Awards section of our FAQ for more information.)
- The pride that comes with making a positive difference as a citizen scientist. (The critical data you’ll gather will be used in wildlife habitat studies.)
Who Can Join
Walk for Wildlife is open to individuals, adult teams of no more than 10, and and youth teams of more than 10. Everyone from anywhere around the world can participate, including you! And don’t worry, you don’t have to be an expert; all that’s required is an interest in wildlife.
How to Register
Registration is $50 per person, which goes to support Loudoun Wildlife’s ongoing mission to protect, preserve and restore wildlife habitat.
