As part of its 100th birthday celebration, Clifty Falls State Park is hosting a Centennial Hike Series beginning March 7. Hikes will take place once each month through November.

The hikes will explore various themes, including how Clifty Falls became a park, the fossils and geology of the area, and an abandoned railroad. Those who attend five or more hikes will be entered in a drawing for one of three 2021 annual passes to be given away.
