Meet A Greenspace Hike with Cardinal Land Conservancy and C4H
Join Green Umbrella’s Greenspace Alliance, Cardinal Land Conservancy, and the Cincinnati Center for Climate Change and Health (C4H) at Cardinal’s Westmark Woods, for a Meet A Greenspace Hike on Thursday, August 13th from 8-9:30 am!
Located in Springfield Township, Westmark Woods is a 25 acre-property and the newest addition to Cardinal’s preserves. The West Fork of the Mill Creek flows through the preserve on the way to Great Park’s Winton Woods.
The Center for Collaboration on Climate and Community for Health, also known as C4H, is a center at the University of Cincinnati. Founded in 2024, C4H is among an elite group of 21 centers nationwide with a specific focus on climate change and the impacts to human health.
This Meet A Greenspace Hike will be a unique opportunity to explore an urban greenspace alongside an organization working to preserve our natural spaces, as well as scientists who are working to understand and reduce the impacts of climate change on vulnerable populations.
The hike will be an easy to moderate 0.9 miles in length over dirt paths and two bridges and will be guided by staff from Cardinal.
Please dress accordingly, wear proper shoes for hiking, and bring plenty of water! We will meet at the park entrance. The Park is located at 872 Compton Rd., Cincinnati, OH 45231. Parking can be found on site.
If you have any questions, contact Greenspace Alliance Manager, Claire Carlson, at claire@greenumbrella.org.
The Greenspace Alliance would like to thank their sponsor, Duke Energy, for helping to make hikes like these possible!
