Programs: Self-Guided Tours
Description: Two sites are available for self-guided tours at Fermilab:
- Leon M. Lederman Science Education Center
- Visitors are welcome to visit the "Quarks to Quasars" exhibits at the Leon M. Lederman Science Education Center just west of Wilson Hall on Pine Street. Visitors gain hands-on experience as they experiment with exhibits that demonstrate how Fermilab physicists understand nature's secrets. The Center can accommodate groups of five or less on a walk-in basis. Walk-in visitors can use the Visitor's Guide to explore more than 30 experiments. Larger groups should call 630-840-8258 to book a visit. The Lederman Center is open weekdays from 9:00 AM to 4:30 PM and Saturdays from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM. It is closed over the Christmas holiday.
- Margaret Pearson Interpretive Trail
- The Margaret Pearson Interpretive Trail is a quarter mile self-guiding nature trail through a portion of Fermilab's restored prairie. Located on the north side of the Pine Street exit of the site, the trail is open to the public daily from 6:00 AM to 8 PM.
