News · June 25, 2015


On Saturday, June 20, a park ranger leads visitors through the reconstructed 81-acre tallgrass prairie at Herbert Hoover National Historic Site.


Join to learn how and why the National Park Service is reconstructing this endangered habitat as part of the landscape commemorating Herbert Hoover’s life.

The walks begin at the tallgrass prairie observation deck by the gravesite parking lot at 9:30 a.m. and 3 p.m.

The walk is less than a mile and lasts about 60 minutes. Bring water, dress for the weather, and wear comfortable walking shoes.

Hats, sunscreen, sunglasses, and insect repellent are also recommended.

This year the National Park Service launched its “Find Your Park” campaign, which begins a two-year celebration commemorating its first 100 years of preservation and service to the public.

“Find Your Park” is aimed at getting people out to experience all their national parks have to offer and to share their favorite stories about National Parks.
