Falls of the Ohio State Park: Fossil Bed Discovery Hike

Join a park naturalist for an guided exploration of the fossil beds at Falls of the Ohio State Park. During this walk, you'll examine Devonian marine fossils and learn about the ancient creatures that left them behind—what they ate, how they lived, and the conditions that allowed them to be preserved over millions of years. It's a hands-on way to connect with your area's natural history. This program is completely free, thanks to support from the Fund for the Arts Cultural Pass. The main recommendation is to wear closed-toe shoes so everyone can comfortably explore the terrain. Whether your kids are budding paleontologists or just curious about what's underfoot, this is a low-pressure opportunity to discover something fascinating right here in Jeffersonville.
