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.
