Big Tree Hang Out Parents' Night Out

Escape the hustle of urban life and immerse yourself in the natural beauty of William B. Umstead State Park. We invite adults, children, and families to participate in the Curious Minds Trail Adventure, a digital scavenger hunt designed to turn your hiking experience into an interactive scientific expedition. As you traverse the scenic trails and explore the serene manmade lakes, you will search for native wildlife and plant species, such as the marbled salamander or the unique Jack-in-the-Pulpit, while engaging with the Piedmont East Science Trail. To join this adventure, simply download the Actionbound app on your smartphone, where no personal profile or data collection is required. You can begin your quest by scanning the park QR code or searching for the location within the app. This engaging experience is available daily from 8 AM to 8 PM throughout the month of April. Whether you are a local enthusiast or a visitor, this scavenger hunt offers a perfect opportunity to discover the hidden treasures of Wake County.
