Hawk Watching at Bake Oven Knob – Spring 2024

Hawk Watching at Bake Oven Knob - Spring 2024

Description: Experience the marvel of spring bird migration at the Bake Oven Knob Hawk Watch! Over the past 64 years, LGNC and its founding members have counted over 800,000 migrating birds of prey at Bake Oven Knob, a rocky outcropping atop the Kittatinny Ridge. From the Bake Oven Knob parking lot, we will hike a short but rocky section of the Appalachian Trail to a lookout where we’ll observe the migration. Along the way, participants will learn about bird identification, the history of hawk watching, and the ecology of the Kittatinny Ridge. Binoculars will be provided.

The hike will begin at 8:30 a.m. Please note that this program will meet at the Bake Oven Knob parking lot. For directions, see this link.
