From peaceful walks to famous talks, from hands-on fun to genealogical research, there's so much to see and do along the Discovery Trail. These eight fascinating sites are an easy drive from downtown Ithaca, Cornell University, Ithaca College, Cayuga Lake and other Finger Lakes attractions. The only organization of its kind, the Discovery Trail promotes awareness and understanding of the connections among art, history, literature, science, and the natural world.

Fifth graders Ithaca City School District from Fall Creek are participating in "Exploring Biodiversity" at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. When on the Sapsucker Woods trails they use their eyes and ears as well as binoculars, field guides, and sound analysis tools. They are broken into "teams" such as the Red-Winged Blackbird!

Northeast Elementary School Ithaca City School District third graders had a great spring weather day on Monday to walk the Mundy Wildflower Trail at the Cornell Botanic Gardens observing the emerging wildflowers along Fall Creek. When a student spots "their" wildflower they get to share all they have learned about it. Discovery Trail Ithaca Public Education Initiative (IPEI)
