First Timer?

​You will need to plan for your own lodging and food.  On Saturday, we do offer a BBQ chicken or vegetarian meal which you will need to pre-order when registering. The deadline for ordering a Saturday evening meal is May 26th. We are working to secure a vendor to sell a simple lunch on Saturday. Learn more about logistics on the Event Details page.
Always the weekend after Memorial Day, the Allegany Nature Pilgrimage has been held at beautiful Allegany State Park annually since 1959.
