Join us for a guided hike in the fall or spring or a guided snowshoe tour in the winter. We can accommodate groups of up to 60 students. There are no fees for K-12 school groups at Sugar Pine Point State Park.

Join us at Sugar Pine Point State Park and experience a free tour of the Pine Lodge. Travel back in time with an interpreter as we go on a guided tour through the Pine Lodge that was built in 1903. After leaving the mansion, we will adventure into our Natural Preserve and learn about wildlife habitat, forest ecology, Indigenous peoples, and other interests of your group.
