Item Description

 

Point Reyes National Seashore Association is proud to partner with our park concessionaire, HI Point Reyes, also known as the Point Reyes Hostel, and join our friends at Marin Nature Adventures for a special custom-designed Point Reyes experience for up to four guests.

Your party of up to five people will stay at the hostel’s green facility, built using recycled material, solar panels, low-irrigation native plants, and energy-efficient heating and cooling systems, the first LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certified hostel building in the U.S. and in a national park!

Each room features one Houston bed (double bed with a single bunk above) and a set of bunk beds, as well as a fully equipped guest kitchen, a guest lounge, a dining area and a sun deck. The hostel is nestled in a secluded valley surrounded by trails that wind through stunning coastal wilderness, and is only seven miles from the heart of Point Reyes Station.

Remember one of the greatest joys of childhood ­– spending time outdoors discovering the wonders of nature? Recreate those moments with your children on an amazing two-hour outdoor detective adventure with award-winning naturalist, Sharon Barnett of Marin Nature Adventures.

Join Sharon in exploring a favorite place in our magnificent Point Reyes National Seashore! Sharon will guide your group in the art of becoming official Nature Detectives through the powers of careful observation, nature games and other clues that can tell you a lot about the world around you. With magnifying glasses and binoculars in hand, your group will search for important signs of animal life including tracks, scat, tufts of fur, smells and sounds that may lead to an important discovery.

This a perfect adventure for families with children or grandchildren, teachers or environmental educators, or as a unique birthday party idea. Bid today!
