Enjoy a day of nature exploration and environmental education as we walk around Lake Lagunitas. This is one of the prettiest walks in Marin, with lots of wildlife to see and hear. We will look for signs of Bald Eagles, Brandt’s Cormorant, River Otters, Western Pond Turtles, Piliated Woodpeckers and much more. Lake Lagunitas is a reservoir on Lagunitas Creek in Marin County. It is one of seven reservoirs providing potable water to the Marin Municipal Water District. It is the oldest and smallest lake in the Mount Tamalpais watershed.
