Planning Your Visit

What to Bring:

You are advised to bring boots to the festival as the trails will most likely be wet and muddy.

• Comfortable shoes / boots for walking.
• Any birding gear you desire.
• Be prepared for cold & rainy weather. 56F is the average high temp for Erie in May and temps on the peninsula are even lower.
• Deer ticks are common. Being able to tuck your pants into your socks is strongly advised.
